Westerdale is a scattered crofting village in the centre of Caithness. It sits beside the River Thurso and the B870, five miles due south of Halkirk.

South of the village are the remains of a broch.

A long, dead-end lane leads out from Westerdale to Strathmore Lodge and the many lochs and lochans of the Flow Country.
