Green Mountain is a 1,639-foot (500 m) summit in the Blue Hills on the Kitsap Peninsula of Washington state, in the United States' Pacific Northwest. It is the second highest point on the Kitsap Peninsula and in Kitsap County, Washington, after nearby 1,761-foot (537 m) Gold Mountain.
It lies within the boundaries of the 6,000-acre (2,400 ha) Green Mountain State Forest, which is adjacent to the City of Bremerton watershed, about 7 miles (11 km) west of downtown Bremerton. There is a forest road, open to motorized traffic, to the summit, where there is a picnic area with vistas of Seattle and the Cascade Mountains to the east, and the Olympic Mountains to the west.
As of 2014[update], there is a single microwave tower on the mountain.
