Tuggeranong Hill is part of the Canberra Nature Park. A walk to the top of Tuggeranong Hill provides views of the Lanyon Valley and of the rest of southern Canberra. Tuggeranong Hill stands 855 metres (2800 feet) above sea level.

Tuggeranong is a former railway station, sometimes referred to as Tuggeranong Siding or Tuggeranong Platform, that was located on a now-disused portion of the Bombala railway line. Situated in the historic Parish of Tuggeranong, the station also shared its name with the nearby Grazing and Dairy Farm of Tuggeranong. Most of the land encompassed by the Parish was transferred from New South Wales to the Australian Capital Territory in 1911. Today Tuggeranong is a suburban district in Canberra, however the former station site is just over the border in New South Wales. The former station predates the suburban district by over eight decades, and it closed just over two years after the suburban district was inaugurated. The station's 'mileage' was originally 202 miles 71 chains (around 326.5 km), by rail from Sydney—via the older Picton-Mittagong route—but, at the time it closed, its 'mileage' was 335.629 km. It lies at the start of a large bend, in the railway line, known as the 'Horseshoe Bend', that skirts the Melrose Valley—formed by Dunn's Creek and its tributaries, and which is a part of the upper catchment of Tuggeranong Creek—as the line climbs toward Royalla. As a result, the railway line runs generally from south-west to north-east at this location. The railway line from Queanbeyan to Michelago via Tuggeranong opened to traffic on 7 December 1887.The station platform and its waiting room were on the northern side of the line. The station building was described as "a weatherboard waiting-shed 30ft. x 15ft., with iron roof, built on pile foundations." The station platform was 264 feet long by 12 feet wide, and the siding 12 chains in length. The siding was a dead-end siding connected to the main line, at the 'up' end only, by a set of manually-operated double-ended points, with the points on the siding track acting as a catch point. There was also a level crossing of what is now Old Tuggeranong Road.Nearby, on the hill south-west of the station site, was a Travelling Stock Reserve, in recent years known as the Old Tuggeranong TSR—now Melrose Nature Reserve and part of Canberra Nature Park—into which livestock were herded before or after being carried by rail. The platform and waiting room were not the only structures at the site. A photograph taken in 1920 shows several other small structures associated with the stock pens for the loading ramp and the railway fettlers that were stationed at Tuggeranong. The fettler's (ganger) cottage was removed in the 1950s.
