Overlooking both Glen Lochay and Glen Dochart, Meall Glas is the higher and western summit on a broad, curved mountain whose eastern end is crowned by the Munro Top of Beinn Cheathaich. The mountain is predominantly grass-covered, with a broad summit area and generally gentle terrain. Although lacking the rugged character of some neighbouring peaks, its elevated position provides expansive views across the Southern Highlands, particularly over to the Crianlarich hills.

Meall Glas is most readily approached from Glen Lochay, where an estate track climbs up Beinn Cheathaich's northern shoulder, though the River Lochay must first be forded. Between the two summits lies a stretch of undulating high ground crossed by a faint path. An alternative approach can also be made from Glen Dochart to the south.
