Bandry Bay separates the island from the mainland, just south of Luss.

Wilson, the island is "comparatively steep and lofty, mostly covered with natural oak".

[7] A northern summit, Tom nan Clag (English: Mound of the Bell), rises steeply to 282 feet (86 m), the highest point on the loch.

Sir James Colquhoun built a winding path up to the summit in the 17th century.
