This is a list of the highest natural points within the {{convert|1569|km2|abbr=on}} area of Greater London, England. The list includes all 21 peaks at least 100 metres high.

One is an isolated hill, a large knoll named Harrow on the Hill.

The other 20 summits are clustered on six ridges (escarpments) in London, four of which extend beyond London and are named: Blackheath Ridge, one of the North Weald Ridges, the North Downs ridge and the Grim's Ditch ridge.

The highest point of land, the {{convert|245|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} Westerham Heights, was also higher than any man-made structure in London until 2012, when the {{convert|309|m|ft|0|abbr=on}} tall Shard London Bridge was completed.

Settlements

Grouped by London Borough, South Street, a hamlet in Bromley, is the highest at {{convert|220|m|ft|0}} above sea level. It is at the edge of the Surrey Hills AONB which covers the Surrey part of the North Downs and Greensand Ridge. The six next highest are all near-neighbours: Horns Green ({{convert|216|m|ft|0}}), Berry's Green and Biggin Hill (both reaching {{convert|190|m|ft|0}}), Aperfield and Single Street (both {{convert|180|m|ft|0}}), and Luxted at {{convert|177|m|ft|0}}.

Outside Bromley the highest settlements are Sanderstead and Selsdon (reaching {{convert|170|m|ft|0}} and five metres below that, respectively) in Croydon.

Arkley in Barnet is built up to {{convert|147|m|ft|0}}. Lower neighbours are Monken Hadley and Chipping Barnet, both {{convert|131|m|ft|0}}, and Barnet Gate {{convert|129|m|ft|0}}.

The Vale of Health is a micro-locality in Hampstead Heath in Camden at ({{convert|130|m|ft|0}}. Harrow on the Hill in Harrow ({{convert|124|m|ft|0}}) and Shooters Hill in Greenwich ({{convert|120|m|ft|0}}) also have high positions.

Some have peaks or crests (in the table above) in their definitively built-up area (e.g. Sanderstead, Harrow on the Hill and Shooters Hill).
