The hill is boulder-clay capped with twin summits; the higher east-northeastern of them rising to 41 m. It is snow free in summer. The hill was mapped by the Spanish Servicio Geográfico del Ejército in 1991, and by Bulgaria in 1996 and 2005.

Belozem is the name of a settlement in southern Bulgaria, ‘belozem’ being the Bulgarian for ‘white soil.’
