Ballinluig (schottisch-gälisch: Baile an Luig) ist ein Dorf im schottischen Hochland. Es liegt in der Unitary Authority Perth and Kinross in der Nähe der Mündung des River Tummel in den River Tay.

Ballinluig hatte bis in die 1960er Jahre regionale Bedeutung, da am Bahnhof von Ballinluig ein Nebengleis der Highland Railway nach Aberfeldy abzweigte. Die Nebenstrecke und der Bahnhof wurden aber 1965 geschlossen.

In der Nähe des Dorfes produzierte ab 1812 die Auchnagie-Brennerei Whisky.[1] Sie wurde jedoch im Jahre 1912 geschlossen. Auch die 1810 gegründete und 1927 geschlossene Ballechin-Brennerei lag in der Umgebung des Dorfes.[2]
