Dalchreichart is a linear settlement, spread out along a minor road on the northern side of the River Moriston. The A887 road runs past along the southern side of the river.
Dalchreichart had a primary school, but it was mothballed in 2002 after the school roll dropped to just two pupils, then formally closed in 2006.[1] Pupils now travel to school in Drumnadrochit or Fort Augustus.
