Ard Crags has an elevation of 581 m (1,906 ft) with a prominence of around 120 m (394 ft), although in his listing, Wainwright recorded its height as being approximately 1,860 ft. Its parent peak is Grasmoor and it is connected by a ridge to Knott Rigg, so many visitors will link the two on the same walk. The summit area is a narrow ridge covered with heather, with a small cairn marking the highest point. The views to the north and west are foreshortened by the Eel Crag to Causey Pike ridge, but there are good views of the Newlands valley below.
