Sgurr Fiona (An Teallach)

Local nameSgurr Fiona (An Teallach)
LocationEdinburgh, UK

An Teallach is a mountain in Scotland. It lies to the southwest of Dundonnell and overlooks Little Loch Broom, in an area often nicknamed the "great wilderness". An Teallach means The Family, coming from the Scottish Gaelic word 'teaghlach'. It is also thought to mean 'The Anvil' or 'The Forge' in Scottish Gaelic; in reference to the colour of the terrain in certain lighting conditions.

The mountain is mostly made of Torridonian sandstone. Like the peaks around Torridon, An Teallach has terraced sides riven with steep gullies and a sharp rocky summit crest at Sgùrr Fiona. The steepest section, known as Corrag Bhuidhe, rises above Loch Toll an Lochain. Corrag Bhuidhe's most spectacular feature is an overhanging pinnacle known as Lord Berkeley's Seat.
