Tinderry is a locality in the Snowy Monaro Region, New South Wales, Australia. It lies to the east of Michelago and South West of Captains Flat. At the 2016 census, it had a population of 66. The western part of the locality lies on the Tinderry Range, which includes Tinderry Peak (1,619 m (5,312 ft)) and Tinderry Twin Peak. A large part of the mountainous terrain forms Tinderry Nature Reserve. Further east the terrain is more open and includes grazing country and the small settlement of Little Tinderry. A public school was located at Little Tinderry from 1899 to 1913, generally described as "half-time", but "provisional" in 1900 and early 1901.
