The Devil's Bit or Devil's Bit Mountain is a large hill in County Tipperary, Ireland, which rises to 480 metres . It lies north-west of the town of Templemore. The mountain is usually climbed through the townland of Barnane. There is a car park at the base.
The mountain was historically called Sliabh Aildiúin and Bearnán Éile, after the territory of Éile. According to local legend, the mountain got its current name because the devil took a bite out of it. There is a small gap in the mountain between one outcrop of rock and another small plateau. The legend says that the devil broke his teeth taking this bite and spat the Rock of Cashel from his mouth to where it now stands.
