Black Mountain, Summit in Belfast, Northern Ireland
Black Mountain rises to 389 meters above Belfast, offering views across the city, Belfast Lough, and on clear days extending to Scotland.
The mountain contains evidence of early human settlements through flint discoveries, ancient raths, and abandoned farming structures across its slopes.
The National Trust manages this natural landmark, protecting it from extensive quarrying while maintaining walking paths for public access.
Visitors can access the 4.8-kilometer summit trail from Divis Barn, with facilities including restrooms and a seasonal tea room at the starting point.
Snow poles line the mountain roads during winter months, measuring snow depth and helping travelers navigate through reduced visibility conditions.
