Hiking
Both Black Hill and nearby Sorrel Hill are great out and back run or hike outings and can be completed from the same sizeable car park at Ballynultagh Gap. These trails are very popular for a good reason, some great views can be had out over the Wicklow countryside from here.

Mountain biking
It can be a bit wet at the top, but the views down to Poulaphouca Reservoir are worth the climb.
