Its spectral type is G5III. 16 Lyncis is relatively distant, and therefore not easily visible to the naked eye, requiring binoculars or a small telescope for observation. Its brightness is around magnitude 4.9. The star's age and precise distance are not definitively known, but studies estimate it to be hundreds of light-years away from Earth. Information regarding planetary companions or other notable features surrounding 16 Lyncis is currently scarce.
