Rheilffordd Corris Railway

Corris Railway is a heritage narrow-gauge railway and museum in the Dulas Valley, a scenic inland day-trip from Barmouth. Well-behaved dogs are welcome on the trains at the crew's discretion and there's a £1 dog fare. The museum and ticket office area are also open to dogs, making this a proper day out you can share from start to finish.

The railway runs steam and diesel trains through wooded valley scenery and pre-booking is advisable as tickets are limited. The site opens half an hour before the first train and closes half an hour after the last one returns, so plan your visit around the timetable. Your dog travels with you in the carriage, though access to individual carriages is at the crew's discretion on the day.

This is a strong choice for a Barmouth-based dog holiday when you fancy a change from the coast. The combination of train travel, museum browsing and valley views gives you a full morning or afternoon out without splitting up the group.
