Berlebashka is a mountain in the Rakhiv Mountains (part of the Marmarosh Mountains). It is located in the south of Rakhiv district, Zakarpattia region, south of the village of Bohdan and southeast of the village of Kostylivka.

The height is 1733.9 m. The mountain has a conical shape, the slopes are very steep (especially the southern one), sometimes rocky. The top and the summit part are unforested.

To the northeast is Mount Petrosul (1780.9 m), to the south - Pip Ivan Marmarosky (1936 m).

Mount Berlebashka is located within the Maramorosky protected area of the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve. On the northern slopes of the mountain, the Radomyr Stream, the left tributary of the Kvasy, originates.

Another interesting legend tells about the origin of the name of Berlebashka. The legend says that once upon a time, during the Mongol-Tatar rule, the enemy managed to conquer the Hutsuls, but they failed to get tribute from them. "Berle bashka" was the sentence for the rebellious, which means "beheading." In memory of the murders of ordinary civilians, the peak was christened after this horrific ritual. Interestingly, the nearby village also had an identical name in ancient times, which later changed to Kostylivka. The peak itself is covered with dense grasses so that, knowing about this legend, it seems that these are the souls of the dead.
