Black Mountain, also known as Galambary to the Ngunnawal people,[3][4] is a small mountain with an elevation of 812 metres (2,664 ft) AHD that is situated to the west of the Canberra central business district on the northern shore of Lake Burley Griffin, in the Australian Capital Territory of Australia.

Galambary was also used by Ngunnawal people as an initiation site, with the mountain itself said to represent the growth of a boy into a man.

Black Mountain rises 256 metres (840 ft) above the water level of Lake Burley Griffin that lies at its base.

The Black Mountain Peninsula contains mudstone in the north and greywacke from the Ordovician age Pittman Formation in the south.
