Beinn Dronaig is a grass-covered little Corbett with a rugged north-east face standing in a remote setting in the wild lands between Loch Carron and Loch Monar in the north-western highlands.

The most practical approach to Beinn Dronaig begins on an estate track that heads eastwards from Attadale Gardens by the head of Loch Carron. With recent hydro works, this track is much improved along much of its length and reaches just beyond Bendronaig Lodge, where an older track travels further and gains the base of the hill.
