The hill is 522 metres (1712 feet) high. It is one of the Marilyns of Lowland Scotland. It is the highest point of the relatively low-lying county of Renfrewshire and indeed the entire Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park of which it is a part.
History
Around the hill in the past several planes crashed due to bad weather condition.[2]; among them in 1938 is recorded a crash of a Spartan Cruiser and in 1947 of a Seafire[3].
