The Druesberg (or Drusberg) is a mountain located north of Pragel Pass in the Schwyzer Alps and the canton of Schwyz. It lies on the range between Unteriberg and Muotathal.
The skiing and hiking area Hoch-Ybrig lies to the north-west of the mountain summit, on the slopes into the valleys of the Minster and Waag rivers. To the north-east, the mountain is drained by the upper reaches of the Sihl, which eventually flows the centre of the city of Zürich.
