Meall na Teanga is a Scottish mountain located in the Highland council area. 11 kilometres north of Spean Bridge. == Overview == Meall na Teanga is situated on the northern side of Loch Lochy and is closely associated with the adjacent Munro of Sròn a' Choire Ghairbh which lies two kilometres to the north across the Cam Bealach. The two mountains are usually ascended together.〔"The Munros" Page 146 (Gives details of joint ascent of both Munros).〕 Meall na Teanga is seen prominently from the A82 road on the opposite bank of Loch Lochy showing steep slopes which have the conifer plantations of the South Laggan Forest below the 300 metre contour. The hill just attains Munro status by four metres, reaching a height of 918 metres (3012 feet). In the original 1891 version of Munro's Tables, Meall na Teana was listed as a subsidiary “Top” of Sròn a' Choire Ghairbh. It was promoted to Munro status when the tables were updated in 1921, despite continuing doubts as to whether it had sufficient height.〔(The Munros and Tops 1891-1997. ) Spreadsheet showing changes in successive editions of Munro's Tables.〕 The hills name translates from the Gaelic as “Hill of the Tongue”. This refers to one of the hills ridges either the long tongue like western ridge which curves round two fine corries or the steep buttressing spur which rises from the loch to the summit.〔"The Magic of the Munros" Page 119 (Gives info on meaning of name).〕 The hill is sometimes referred to by its informal moniker of “Tango”.
