Kleinkahl is a community in the Aschaffenburg district in the Regierungsbezirk of Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) in Bavaria, Germany, and a member of the Verwaltungsgemeinschaft (municipal association) of Schöllkrippen. Kleinkahl has around 1,800 inhabitants.

Kleinkahl lies in the region known as "Bavarian Lower Main" (Bayerischer Untermain) in the Mittelgebirge Spessart. The municipal territory is located at the northern border of the district of Aschaffenburg and at the border between Bavaria and Hesse. It lies in the Kahlgrund, the valley of the river Kahl, a tributary of the Main. At Kleinkahl, the Kleine Kahl flows into the Kahl.

Kleinkahl has eight Ortsteile: Edelbach, Kahlmühle, Großkahl, Glashütte, Wesemichhof, Großlaudenbach, Kleinkahl and Kleinlaudenbach. The community has the following five Gemarkungen (traditional rural cadastral areas): Edelbach, Großkahl, Großlaudenbach, Kleinkahl, Kleinlaudenbach.

Kleinkahl borders on (clockwise from the north): Biebergemünd (Hesse), the unincorporated areas Wiesener Forst () and Schöllkrippener Forst (), Schöllkrippen, Westerngrund and the unincorporated area Huckelheimer Wald ().

Part of the current municipal area lay within the Archbishopric of Mainz and in 1803, it was secularized. The rest lay within Krombach over which the Counts of Schönborn held sway and passed with mediatization in 1806 to the Principality of Aschaffenburg, with which it passed in 1814 to the Kingdom of Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, the current community came into being with the Gemeindeedikt (“Municipal Edict”) of 1818.
