Halla, coastlines, and various parasitic cones.The mountain has an oval shape from south to north with a steep incline. The top has a large, deep funnel-shaped crater that still preserves its original shape unlike craters in cones.

Meadow plants, such as Aster yomena, populate most of the mountain. A gentle hill to the right of Darangshi Oreum is called Akkun Darangshi Oreum (also called Sowol Nangak). Meaning 'small,' 'Akkun' is both old Korean and Jeju dialect.Darangshi Oreum hosts Wollang Peak Sunrise Festival every year allowing visitors to see the spectacular full moon from the crater.
