Ben Gorm (Irish: An Bhinn Ghorm, meaning 'the blue peak')[3] is a mountain with a height of 700 metres (2,300 ft)[1] on the north side of Killary Harbour in County Mayo, Ireland. The Ben Gorm mountains also includes two other peaks: Ben Creggan/Binn an Charragáin (693 m),[4] and Maul Laur/Meall Láir or Ben Creggan South Top (687 m).[5]

The Ben Gorm group overlooks Killary Harbour to the south, Fin Lough and Doo Lough to the west (which separate it from the Mweelrea Mountains), Glenummera to the north (which separate it from the Sheeffry Hills), and Glendavock to the east.[1]
