The Black Hills are a small range of hills in Thurston and Grays Harbor counties of Washington. They are a subset of the Willapa Hills. 2,589-foot (789 m) Capitol Peak is one of the most popular summits in the Black Hills but nearby Larch Mountain is a slim 1 foot higher in elevation, marking the highest peak in the range.

The Capitol State Forest has roughly the same boundaries as the Black Hills.

The high school A.G. West Black Hills is named for the hills. So is Black Hills Community Hospital and the local soccer club the Blackhills Football Club.
