The Cabrach is an estate and largely depopulated rural community in Moray, Scotland. The meaning of the name has been much disputed. Traditionally it is held to mean "timber moss", though this has no recognisable counterpart in Scottish Gaelic, and Alexander Smith suggests no Gaelic meaning can be assigned. Cabrach is situated 3 miles west of Garbet.
