Black Mountain, Mountain summit in Santa Clara County, California.
Black Mountain rises to 2,812 feet in elevation, featuring diverse habitats with grasslands, oak trees, and limestone formations along the Monte Bello Ridge.
In 1885, Italian immigrant Oseo Perrone established the Montebello Winery at 2,600 feet on Black Mountain, marking the beginning of agricultural development.
The mountain holds significance as part of the traditional territories of the Ohlone people, who inhabited the region before European settlement.
Visitors can access the summit through a 2.5-mile hiking route starting at the Monte Bello parking area, which provides designated spaces for vehicles.
The mountain contains Calera limestone rocks at its peak, indicating its origins as an ancient seamount approximately 100 million years ago.
