Overview

The Torrent Walk is a path on the outskirts of Dolgellau and is one of the more popular routes in the area. This walk will lead you under a woodland canopy, along the Clywedog River and past hidden industrial remains. The walk’s name likely derives from the many striking views of the Clywedog river as it cascades down the gorge.
