Bieszczady Mountains [bʲɛˈʂt͡ʂadɨ] (Polish: Bieszczady; Slovak: Beščady; Ukrainian: Бещади, romanized: Beshchady; Hungarian: Besszádok) is a mountain range that runs from the extreme south-east of Poland and north-east of Slovakia through to western Ukraine. It forms the western part of the Eastern Beskids (Polish: Beskidy Wschodnie; Ukrainian: Східні Бескиди, romanized: Skhidni Beskyky), and is more generally part of the Outer Eastern Carpathians. The mountain range is situated between the Łupków Pass (640 m) and the Vyshkovskyi Pass (933 m). The highest peak of Bieszczady is Mt Pikui (1405 m) in Ukraine. The highest peak of the Polish part is Tarnica (1346 m).[citation needed]

Upper parties of Bieszczady are covered with montane meadows called polonyna (Ukrainian: полонина; Polish: połonina; Slovak: polonina).
