The 2022–23 North Caledonian Football League (known for sponsorship reasons as the Macleod & MacCallum North Caledonian League) was the 114th season of the North Caledonian Football League, and the second season as part of the sixth tier of the Scottish football pyramid system.
Loch Ness won the league title for the first time; their 5–0 victory over Fort William coupled with Invergordon's 1–1 draw against Orkney on 8 April 2023, gave them an unassailable 10-point lead over Invergordon with 3 games remaining (the margin was 4 points at the end of the season).
As such, they entered the 2023–24 Scottish Cup at the Preliminary Round stage, as they had not already qualified as a non-SFA member.
