Benleagh (Irish: Binn Liath, meaning 'Grey Peak')[2] stands at 689 metres (2,260 ft), while it does not have the prominence to qualify as an Arderin,[3] but its prominence does allow it to rank as the 125th–highest peak on the Vandeleur-Lynam scale.[4][5] Benlagh is situated in the southern sector of the Wicklow Mountains, and is part of the large massif of Lugnaquilla 925 metres (3,035 ft), County Wicklow's highest mountain.[6]

Benleagh's southern flank forms the steep walls and cliffs of the hanging valley of Fraughan Rock Glen, which then falls into the U-shaped valley of Glenmalure below; Benleagh forms a "horseshoe" around the Fraughan Rock Glen with Lugnaquillia at its apex and Cloghernagh 800 metres (2,600 ft), to the south.[7] Benleagh also sits on a broad "spine" that links Lugnaquilla in the south, to Camenabologue and Table Mountain to the north, which circle the Glen of Imaal.[6][8]
