The mountain has a dramatic morphology, with two aretes, dark glacial cwms and rocky character. There are views of Snowdonia, with Mynydd Mawr, Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) and Moel Hebog being close neighbours. The peak also has three other tops, which all in all form a rocky and relatively narrow part of the Nantlle ridge.
