Hibarigaoka Station (ひばりヶ丘駅 Hibarigaoka-eki?) is a railway station in Nishitōkyō, Tokyo, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Seibu Railway.
Hibarigaoka Station is served by the Seibu Ikebukuro Line from Ikebukuro in Tokyo, with some services inter-running via the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line to Shin-Kiba and the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line to Shibuya and onward via the Tokyu Toyoko Line and Minato Mirai Line to Motomachi-Chukagai. Located between Hōya and Higashi-Kurume, it is 16.4 km from the Ikebukuro terminus.
The station has two elevated island platforms serving four tracks.
The station opened on June 11, 1924 as Tanashimachi Station (田無町駅?). It gained its current name on May 1, 1959, following the construction of the Hibarigaoka Housing Estate nearby.
