Kindrochit Castle () is a ruined 14th-century fortification in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is located at Braemar, in a strategic position on the banks of the Clunie Water, a tributary of the River Dee. The ruins are protected as a scheduled monument.
Kindrochit was a hunting seat of King Robert II, who issued charters here most years between 1371 and 1388. In 1390 Robert III granted a licence to Malcolm Drummond to build a new tower on the site. The present ruins comprise the ground floor of the tower, measuring around 19.3 by 13 metres . The site of the earlier royal lodge was excavated in the 1920s and included a hall around 30 by 9 metres , with square towers at each corner.
