Beinn Teallach has gentle slopes and a rounded outline to the S and W, with ridges SW and SSW, but steeper craggy slopes to the E and well defined ridges NW and NE. The NW ridge terminates in steep craggy slopes and the NE ridge has a craggy E flank, but easy N slopes, which leads to a broad boggy bealach giving access to Beinn Chaorainn's W slopes. Normal ascent is via the S slopes and the NE ridge.
Coming from Beinn a' Chaorainn it is a straighforward ascent, and even though it is of modest height it still looks and is interesting. The hill is quite rocky, but the majority of the climb is on grassy slopes with more rocky terrain at the top. A descent back to Roughburn was made by first heading south from the summit then south-east to avoid the crags thus picking up the good track next to the Allt a' Chaorainn.
