Mount Ragoona, at 1,350 metres elevation, 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.
