It lies 1.5 km northeast of the Zindlenspitz on the same crest, which forms the natural border between the cantons of Schwyz and Glarus.

The ridge carrying the Brünnelistock forms the natural cantonal border between Schwyz and Glarus, and the peak is climbed as part of the chain linking the Zindlenspitz with the double summit of the Redertenstock (2,295 m) and the Mutteristock (2,294 m). The name Brünnelistock refers to a spring, Brünneli, on the mountain.
