Slieve Bearnagh (from Irish Sliabh Bearnach 'gapped mountain')[1] is one of the Mourne Mountains in County Down, Northern Ireland.[2] It has a height of 739 metres (2,425 ft).[3] Its summit is crowned by two tors with a gap between them, giving it a distinctive shape.[2] The Mourne Wall crosses the summit of Slieve Bearnagh east to west. Paths lead to the cols on either side of the mountain, namely Pollaphuca ("pool of the púca") to the west and Hare's Gap to the east. From the latter, one can also descend southwards to the head of the Ben Crom reservoir.

Lo Slieve Bearnagh (in gaelico irlandese Sliabh Bearna) è un monte situato nella contea di Down, Irlanda del Nord. La sua cima è costellata di qualche tor. Il Mourne Wall attraversa la sommità del monte, proseguendo poi lungo i fianchi est e ovest della montagna stessa. I sentieri che portano alla cima sono due: uno da est (chiamato Pollaphuca, che significa "Pozzo di Púca") e uno da ovest (chiamato Hare's Gap).
