Meall Bhenneit

Rising to 531 metres in the northern Highlands, this modest summit sits in relatively remote country east of Glen Affric. The hill's classification as both a Dodd and a Tump reflects its prominence in fairly unfrequented terrain. Typical approaches involve rough moorland and heather, rewarding those who make the effort with genuine solitude.

• •The name Meall Bhenneit derives from Scottish Gaelic, with 'meall' meaning a rounded hill or lump, though the precise meaning of 'bhenneit' is less clear—it may relate to 'beannach' suggesting a blessed or fortunate place, or could reference an older landscape feature now lost to common knowledge.
• •At grid reference NH546833, the summit lies in a particularly quiet corner of the Highlands, well removed from the popular Munro routes that draw most visitors to nearby Glen Affric and Strathglass.
