Its northeast ridge drops toward the Tannheimer Tal and carries the Kühgundspitze, a 1,852-meter rock head topped with a cross.

The Kühgundkopf is a Hauptdolomit summit resting on a base of Lias-Fleckenmergel and Kössener Schichten, layered marls and dark, well-bedded limestones.

The Kühgundspitze, a rock head at 1852 m bearing a cross, stands on the northeast ridge dropping toward the Tannheimer Tal.

The Kühgundkopf is the local mountain (Hausberg) of Oberjoch, and lifts run up toward its long ridge from both Oberjoch and Schattwald; in winter these slopes carry ski areas. The Kühgundspitze, a rock head at 1,852 m on the northeast ridge dropping toward the Tannheimer Tal, carries a cross.
