The Darkhad, Darqads, or Darhut (Mongolian for "Blacksmiths","Workmen" (derived from "дархан") are a subgroup of Mongol people living mainly in northern Mongolia, in the Bayanzürkh, Ulaan-Uul, Renchinlkhümbe, Tsagaannuur sumsofKhövsgöl Province; The Darkhad valley is named after them. The regional variant of Mongol language is the Darkhad dialect.[7] In the 2000 census, 16,268 people identified themselves as Darkhad.

The Darkhad were originally part of the OiratorKhotgoid tribes. Between 1549 and 1686, they were subjects of Zasagt Khan aimag and the Khotgoid Altan Khan. In 1786 they became part of the Jebtsundamba Khutuktu's shabi otog. At roughly the same time they became known as Black Darkhad.

Many Darkhad practise shamanism.
