The municipality of Unteriberg lies in the valleys of the Sihl, Waag and Minster rivers, at the southern end of the artificial Sihlsee. Its territory includes the villages of Unteriberg, Studen, Waag, Stöcken, and Herti. The villages of Unteriberg, Stöcken and Herti lie on the Minster river close to its confluence with the Waag. The village of Waag is on its namesake river, whilst Studen is on the Sihl. To the south of the municipality is the mountain of Druesberg, whose northern slopes are shared between Unteriberg and the neighbouring municipality of Oberiberg. To the east is the Fluebrig mountain, composed of several summits of which the highest is named Diethelm (2093 m) and the second highest Turner (2069 m).
