Northwood Hills is a London Underground station on the Metropolitan line in the area of Northwood, between Northwood and Pinner stations and is in Travelcard Zone 6.

The station opened on 13 November 1933. There was a competition for the name and Northwood Hills, suggested by a woman from North Harrow was the winning entry. The area is lower than Northwood, despite the name.

In the northbound direction the station is served by trains to Watford (4tph), Amersham (2tph) and Chesham (2tph) trains (at peak times, 'fast' trains do not stop at stations between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Moor Park). In the southbound direction off-peak services generally run 4tph to Baker Street and 4tph to Aldgate.

London Buses routes 282, H11 and H13 serve the station.
