Béal Átha an Ghaorthaidh (pronounced – sometimes anglicised as Ballingeary) is a village in the Shehy Mountains in County Cork, Ireland.

The village is within the Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking area) and has an active Irish-language summer school, Coláiste na Mumhan (The College of Munster). It also hosts a yearly agricultural and horticultural show.

The River Lee rises a few miles west of the village, at Gougane Barra National Park.
