Tibradden Mountain (Irish: Sliabh Thigh Bródáin, meaning Moutain of the House of Bródán) is a mountain in the Dublin Mountains in County, Ireland on the southern edge of the city southeast of Rockbrook.
Its southwestern slope is covered in the Pine Forest and the R116 runs through the valley between it and Glendoo Mountain to the south.
The mountain is (467 metres) (1,532) feet high.
There is a megalithic national heritage site on top of the mountain with the same name. There is also a mock prehistoric passage grave, built in the 19th century, with a long narrow entrance to a circular chamber.
