Mount Ragoona, at 1350 metres altitude is a relatively high mountain in the southern region of the Walls of Jerusalem National Park in Tasmania, Australia. It is virtually surrounded by four large lakes; Myrtle, Meston, Louisa and Adelaide. It is not that well known, however it is a prominent mountain rising from the shores of Lake Myrtle.

The mountain summit is at grid reference 334619 UTM Zone 55S and high resolution topographical information is available on Tasmap Cathedral (4236) 1:25000. Directly below its sheer cliff face to the immediate west is Lake Myrtle and further west lies Chalice Lake and then Cathedral Mountain, due north is Lake Bill, somewhat distant to the northeast but dominant are the Walls of Jerusalem and due south are The Mountains of Jupiter.
