The dentatothalamic tract (or dentatorubrothalamic tract) is a tract which originates in the dentate nucleus, follows the ipsilateral superior cerebellar peduncle, decussates later on reaching the contralateral red nucleus and the contralateral thalamus.

The term "dentatorubrothalamocortical" is sometimes used to emphasize termination in the cerebral cortex.
