The range extends 9 km from west to east, starting west of the village of Solomos, passing south of the village of Xylokeriza and ending near the Bay of Kechries, on the Saronic Gulf.[1]

The highest peaks are Profitis Ilias (Greek: Προφήτης Ηλίας), at 581m, and Oxy (Greek: Οξύ), at 562 meters. The other two peaks measure 507m and 229m respectively.

The range is also known in the singular as Mount Oneio (Greek: Όνειο όρος) or Mount Oneion, as well as the Xylokeriza Mountains (Greek: τα βουνά της Ξυλοκέριζας).
