Kinlochard is a village in Stirling, Scotland. [1] [2] It lies to the western end of Loch Ard. [3] Children in Kinlochard attend Aberfoyle Primary School and eventually McLaren High School. [4]

There is a recently renovated village hall, opened in April 2011, and is used as a venue for weddings and parties as well as being used by schools and cubs. [5] The village hosts an annual Highland Games in mid July on the field opposite the village hall featuring many traditional events with a focus on family and community.
