The hillfort is situated on a promontory of a highland, bordered by a deep valley on its eastern side. Its rectangular platform (45×30 m) features a northeastern rampart (0.4 m high, 4 m wide) followed by a ditch (5 m wide, 0.7 m deep). Beyond the ditch lies a crescent-shaped rampart (35 m long, 1.2 m high, 6 m wide). On the southern-southwestern slope, there is a 2 m wide terrace, while on the southeastern side, a terrace measuring 15×8 m can be found. The steep slopes reach up to 16 m in height.
The hillfort has been affected by plowing and is now covered with coniferous trees. At the eastern foothill (0.5 ha), a settlement site with handmade pottery fragments was discovered. It is dated to the end of the 1st millennium BCE and the beginning of the 1st millennium CE. This is an important archaeological and cultural heritage site that attracts history enthusiasts and tourists alike.
