Up and down to Black Rock Mountain beginning from Ballycrystal.
 

Largely uses forest tracks, once out of the forest however, there is a very maintained looking track which continues all the way to the col between Black Rock and Mount Leinster East Top.  Judging by the tracks, this is used regularly by horse riders.
 

As Paddyhillsbagger has pointed out on the hill's page, there is a substantial rectangular building on the col.  This flat roofed structure has no immediately apparent use; it contains a fireplace and an inner corrugated ceiling which is still in place, though sagging somewhat.
