Meall Duibhinidh

Rising to 516 metres in the Central Highlands, this modest Dodd occupies moorland terrain north of Loch Earn. The name translates from Gaelic as 'dark-coloured hill', likely referring to heather-clad slopes or peat-stained ground. Its summit lies in relatively unfrequented country, offering a quiet ascent away from busier neighbouring ranges.

• •The name Meall Duibhinidh derives from Scottish Gaelic, combining 'meall' (a rounded hill) with 'duibhinidh' (dark-coloured or blackish), most likely describing the appearance of peat-darkened moorland or deep heather covering the slopes.
• •At 516 metres, this hill falls just short of the 610-metre threshold required for Corbett status, placing it among Scotland's less-visited summits despite offering genuine solitude in the Central Highlands.
