Loch Kishorn

There are three small settlements strung along the southern side of the loch. It is common to refer to the three collectively as Kishorn.

Sanachan lies a little inland at the head of the loch. It contains a small shop/post office and a Scottish Episcopal chapel. The A896 road passes through Sanachan, and a minor road leads off to the other settlements. Ardarroch lies on the lochside, next to small shingly beach. The final settlement, Achintraid, lies further down the loch. It consists of a line of whitewashed cottages, originally built to house crofters evicted in the Highland Clearances. Achintraid is noted for spectacular views of the Applecross peninsula, with the Corbetts of Sgurr a'Chaorachain and Beinn Bhàn and the pass of the Bealach na Ba being particularly prominent.

South of Kishorn are two small Marilyns: An Sgurr and Bad a'Chreamha.
