About Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse
Set in the shadows of Cader Idris, this relaxed and laidback site is the ideal base for Snowdonia National Park. It's just one mile from the market town of Dolgellau (five minutes), plus easy access to many attractions and activities on its doorstep! Welcoming tents, caravans and motorhomes, the site has a range of grass and hardstanding pitches. Most pitches come with 10 amp electric as standard, and the rest have optional hook ups. There are also a handful of electric hardstanding pitches with 10 amp electric hook up and water hook up. The site is spread across three camping and touring fields, comprising of the main field which is a short walk from the central car park, the lake field (as the name suggests!) and the ledges field which is better suited to tents due to steep access, and slightly further from facilities than the other fields. Dogs are welcome.
Torrent Walk Campsite and Bunkhouse is open all year round in 2024 and 2025.
Site facilities include a large toilet block including hot, powerful showers. There is a shared guest fridge and freezer, microwave and kettle. Guests also have access to the wash room with coin-operated washing machines and tumble dryers. Firepits are available to hire from reception.
A petrol station sells essentials down the road, and the market town of Dolgellau is a five minute drive away with shops and restaurants.

Stayed here for one night in a Campervan! Loved the fact that you can book online, they send your pitch number and then your done. Beautiful views, it was quiet and friendly. The site has everything you'd need, the facilities were lovely and clean, I would use these again.

Things to do on site and in the Dolgellau area
Set in the heart of Snowdonia National Park, there is no shortage of outdoor activities.
The site's name comes from the nearby four-mile "Torrent Walk". All you need to do is take a right from the gate along the track, and you will soon be at a bridge, where there will be a signpost for the walk. Although steep in some places, manageable for most skill levels, great to do with kids or an evening dog walk.
The historic market town of Dolgellau (five minutes), the coastal village of Fairbourne (20 minutes) and the seaside town of Barmouth (20 minutes) are all within driving distance of the site.
If cycling is your thing, Coed Y Brenin Mountain Biking Centre (15 minutes) has world-class trails, a visitor center, a cafe and walking paths too! Dyfi Bike Park is also nearby.
Other attractions include:
- Mawddach Trail (5 minutes)
- Mach Loop (5 minutes)
- New Precipice Walk (10 minutes)
- Corris Craft Centre (15 minutes)
- Bwlch-gwyn Pony Trekking (15 minutes)
- Zip World and Bounce Below
- Portmeirion Italian Village (40 minutes)
- Zip World (50 minutes)
