Knockmealdown (Irish: "Cnoc Mhaoldomhnaigh" ) is the highest peak of the Knockmealdown Range of mountains, located on the border between Co Tipperary and Co Waterford. The peak itself is located in Co Waterford and is the highest point in that county.

The peak is most easily accessed from the west, via the lay-bye overlooking Bay Lough on the Vee Gap. This also involves climbing Sugarloaf Hill first. It may also be climbed by following the Glannandaree stream from the carpark at the point where the R668 and R669 roads meet.
