Gamma Hill (63°34′S 56°47′W) is a distinctive ice-covered hill on Tabarin Peninsula, Antarctica, rising more than 300 metres (980 ft) on the shore of Fridtjof Sound.[1] It is an inferred volcanic vent of the James Ross Island Volcanic Group.[2]

The name arises from the intensive geophysical work carried out in this part of Tabarin Peninsula by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1959–60.[1]
