Revaltoppe is one of the highest mountains in Queen Louise Land, NE Greenland. The peak is located in the King Frederick VIII Land area of northeastern Greenland. Administratively it is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park zone.

This peak was named after Reval, an old name for the capital of Estonia, where the Dannebrog is said to have dropped from the sky during a battle between the Danes and the Estonians in 1219.[3]
