Benbulbin (also known as Benbulben) is a striking rock formation located in County Sligo, Ireland. This iconic landmark is part of the Dartry Mountains and is famous for its distinctive flat-topped shape, which has earned it the nickname "Table Mountain." Benbulbin is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts, offering stunning views of the surrounding countryside and the Wild Atlantic Way.

There's a short and easy hike that leads around the mountain called the Benbulben Forest Walk. If you're in the mood for something more adventurous, you can hike to the top and enjoy views from an epic overlook!
