Ardmolich (Gaelic; Scottish Gaelic: An Àird Mholach)[1] and Kinlochmoidart (Ceann Loch Mùideart)[2] are settlements at the east head of Loch Moidart in the Moidart region, Highland, Scotland and are in the Scottish council area of Highland.[3] [4]

The Seven Men of Moidart, beech trees planted at the time of the Jacobite rising of 1745, are nearby. Only three now remain.
