The Little Gruinard is a river in Wester Ross, which runs from the Fionn Loch into Gruinard Bay. Its course runs wholly in Ross-shire, and within the Letterewe Estate.
Its 'elder cousin', the Gruinard River, enters the bay just a little further east.
The river has a healthy run of Atlantic salmon. The Little Gruinard has been a forerunner in the development of 'catch and release fishing' amongst salmon rivers.
