An Teallach is a great sandstone horseshoe in Wester Ross, curving round the cliffs of Toll an Lochain. Sgurr Fiona, at 1059m (3474ft), is a Munro and a HuMP, a sharp peak on the main ridge. An Teallach - Bidein a' Ghlas Thuill (1063m), the other Munro and the highest point, is 0.8km to the north-east. To the south the ridge narrows into the famous pinnacles, with Lord Berkeley's Seat (1032m) 0.2km away and Corrag Bhuidhe (1047m) 0.3km away.
Walkers who want to avoid the pinnacles climb from Dundonnell, following a path up the slopes to the north-east of the ridge onto Bidein a' Ghlas Thuill, then over the col to Sgurr Fiona and back the same way. Most parties start the full traverse from Corrie Hallie and takes in the pinnacles between Sgurr Fiona and the southern end of the ridge.
The pinnacles involve exposed scrambling above huge drops. A bypass path runs below the crest on the south-west side, but it is loose and still serious. In winter the ridge is a mountaineering route.
