[2] There are two small roads connecting tourist cottages and mountain trains/portages[4] in the area, to the rest of Scotland.

The other road is a small dirt track, to the north of the loch unconnected to the southerly route.

[5] As a result, it is a consolidation point for many rivers and streams that run from the mountains into the Atlantic Ocean.

[2] The most notable river flowing into Loch Dionard is the Allt an Eassain Ghil which provides water, from An Dubh-Loch and Lochan Ulbha which themselves bring in water from the mountain peaks of Sabhal Mor, Meall Horn, Creagan Meall Horn, Coire Lochan Ulbha.

[2][5] There are a few cottages in the area around Loch Dionard,[3] and the river southward has fishing and tourist destinations.
