Christmas Hills is a town in Victoria, Australia, 35 km (22 mi) north-east of Melbourne's Central Business District, located within the Shire of Nillumbik local government area.

The area was considered to have poor quality soil, although nearby settlers earned an income from chopping firewood in the sclerophyll forests.

The area grew considerably in the 1870s; at one point the town had two hotels, two schools, a post office and a Mechanics' Institute.

The Christmas Hills township consists of a cluster of homes, a public hall, a tennis court, a memorial park with a World War I monument and a fire brigade shed, erected after the 1939 bushfires.
