Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse: Views (photo added by manager on 31/08/2020)

General

  • Popular place for hikers, bikers and Mach Loop viewers
  • Surrounded by woodland and farmland, 35 mins' drive from Zip World
  • Easy access to the Torrent Walk and Coed-y-Brenin mountain bike centre

Hiker, biker or both? Walk this way. Gywnedd’s Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse is a Snowdonia mecca for mountain bikers and walkers with trails for both all around.

The Torrent Walk is only 500 metres from the site and the famed Coed-y-Brenin mountain bike centre is in the area with acres more walking trails around it. And, for the truly hardy, the mountain Cadair Idris and its three trails can be tackled nearby… and for the hardier still, the ziplines and airborne antics of Zip World Bounce Below are 35 minutes' drive away.

Back at base, Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse is surrounded on all sides by woodland, farmland and mountain views, with pitches on a sheltered, level field. Site facilities include a toilet and shower block, disabled facilities, washing machines, tumble dryers, fridges, freezers, a microwave and mobile charging facilities. There’s also a power wash for bikes and equipment, and the Torrent Walk team can store your bike for you if needed.

For stocking up, the garage just up the road sells essentials and Campinggaz, a shop and café are within a five-minute walk, and a small supermarket and a wide range of shops are in the village of Dolgellau a mile and a half away.

Cooking your own dinner? Campfires are allowed but all the materials must be purchased on site.

    Stayed in a campervan in November.
    Location was picturesque with horse fields and forest surrounding us. We walked the Torrent walk which was a 4km walk in total. Walk to town took us about 20-30 mins, it's down the side of a couple of roads without footpaths so wouldn't recommend it with children.
    Facilities were modern and clean.
    We bought some wood from reception for a fire which was good and not wet.
    There is electric hook up and water taps on all the hardstanding pitches.
    Overall happy with site, would stay again.

    Disliked: 

    Not a great walk into town

    Fantastic friendly staff there to help and support whatever issues you might come across with. The view from the terraced pitch was breathtaking. It's a very clean campsite with great facilities and most importantly with very clean facilities.
    I have visited multiple campsites in the past 3 years but this little gem ticked all the boxes. Massive kudos for the management who have gone above and beyond about providing essentials in the vending machine. (Sanitary emergency pack, coffee/milk/sugar pack, wet wipe pack, washing machine tablet). Great selection of instant foods. You can purchase hygiene essentials, towel for good price. What I'm trying to say even of you stuck there will be a solution.

Thank you Leah. It's always a special moment when you see a shooting star, that is why we like to keep the light pollution low here, so that everyone can appreciate the dark skies.
Look forward to seeing you again.

    Absolutely fab, facilities were absolutely brilliant - only booked two nights to see how it was and far exceeded our expectations. Has everything you need- even if you’re camping and where it was situated was perfect. Cannot appreciate it enough, very happy - will come for longer next time. spoke to other people who used the other glamping and safari hut options and they really recommended it to us so have passed this on to friends and family! Site caters for all, seems to be all seasons too which is a MEGA bonus!

Local attractions

The mountains and trails of Snowdonia, the beaches of Barmouth and the north Wales coast, and heritage attractions like the Rheilffordd Talyllyn Railway and Harlech Castle are all within about half an hour’s drive of Torrent Walk, and Snowdonia National Park has activities for all sorts including whitewater rafting, horse riding, climbing and wild swimming.

The closest activity to home is the popular Torrent Walk, a four-mile circular path following the River Clywedog through its gorge; keep an eye out for otters and lesser horseshoe bats along its route. For gentler strolls, the National Trust managed Cregennan Lakes are about five miles west of Dolgellau on the slopes of Cadair ldris, and the flat Mawddach Trail between Dolgellau and Barmouth along the Mawddach estuary has hiking and biking paths with cracking views. Cregannan also has two lakes for fly and worm fishing, one for brown trout and the other for brown and blue.

Head to the coast for Barmouth and Fairbourne, both uncrowded and with miles of golden sand and Blue Flag awards. Beaut Barmouth Harbour, at the mouth of the Mawddach Estuary, is where to bag a boat for sea and fishing trips, while Fairbourne is a big pull for windsurfers and other watersport sorts. If sightseeing both seasides, take the Fairbourne Steam Railway from Fairbourne to Penrhyn Point and then the passenger ferry to Barmouth.
