Its height is 611 m (2,005 ft). The mountain is notable for its cliffs as well as the pinnacles on the eastern and northern sides, such as Eagle's Rock and The Hag's Leap. Tievebaun is the third-highest mountain in the Dartry Mountains, and ranks as the 254th highest mountain in Ireland. It is the highest independent peak in County Leitrim; however, the mountain's summit is only the second-highest point in the county, as the southeast ridge of Truskmore Mountain lies within Leitrim, at 631 m (2,070 ft).

Sliabh an Iarainn

Sliabh an Iarainn (Irish for "iron mountain"), anglicized Slieve Anierin, is a mountain in County Leitrim, Ireland. It rises to 585 metres (1,919 ft) and lies east of Lough Allen and northeast of Drumshanbo. It is part of the Cuilcagh Mountains. The mountain was shaped by the southwestward movement of ice age glaciers over millions of years, the morainic drift heaping thousands of drumlins in the surrounding lowlands. Historically there were many iron ore deposits and ironworks in the area. Irish mythology associates the mountain with the Tuatha Dé Danann, particularly the smith god Goibniu. Sliabh an Iarainn is an important natural heritage site with exposed marine and coastal fauna of paleontological interest
