Slieve Binnian is an incredible hike located in the Mourne Mountains of County Down, Northern Ireland. It is a moderate hike with a distance of 11.26 km (7 miles) with amazing views from its summit at an impressive 747 metres (2450 ft). The terrain is rocky and steep in sections, but it is definitely worth it, as you are rewarded with stunning views of Silent Valley and Annalong Woods along the way.

I recommend to take this hike during the spring or autumn months to avoid large crowds . Please make sure you are equipped with walking boots and suitable weather preparedness. Despite the rocky terrain, Slieve Binnian is one of the most rewarding hikes in Northern Ireland and should not be missed.
