The mountain takes the form of a long ridge which runs north-west to south-east and falls away steeply to the north-east. The summit is at the north-west end of the ridge and marked by a small cairn; the ridge then turns north and drops into a very shallow col called Bwlch Duwynt before climbing to the adjacent peak of Corn Du.[1][2][3]
