About Glenaneagh

Tucked into the Slieve Felim Mountains of North Tipperary, this 420-metre Tump offers a quiet alternative to the more popular Keeper Hill nearby. The terrain typically consists of upland grazing and forestry, providing a secluded atmosphere for walkers seeking a less-trodden path through these rolling Irish midlands.

Did You Know?

  • The name is likely derived from the Irish 'Gleann an Eich', which translates as the 'Glen of the Horse', suggesting the historical use of these sheltered upland valleys for grazing or transport.
  • The summit provides a clear perspective across the Silvermine Mountains to the north, while the massive, rounded bulk of Keeper Hill (Sliabh Kimalta) dominates the view to the west.
  • Situated in the Slieve Felim range, the hill sits on the geological border between Old Red Sandstone and Silurian rocks, though much of the immediate surface is covered by blanket bog and forestry.
  • As a Tump, it possesses at least thirty metres of prominence, making it a distinct enough rise to be noticed, though usually only by those intent on recording every bump in the Tipperary landscape.
