Liftshare:
If you seek a lift, or are able to offer one to fellow retreatants, please visit our liftshare page.
If you plan to come by public transport, you may find Traveline helpful, in planning your journey.
Arriving by train:
The most convenient station to arrive at is Wrexham General (WRX) Station.
Aim to arrive at the train station before 2.30pm.
Then you need to take the T3 or T3C bus to Corwen (final destination Barmouth). From Wrexham General station, walk towards the town centre; King Street Bus Station is about ten minutes’ walk.
Take the bus that leaves Wrexham around 3pm. The precise times can vary so check here for the latest updates.
We will meet you at the car park bus stop in Corwen (usually the T3 gets around 4:00pm).
Please let us know when you book if you need to be collected from the bus.
Booking your train back home:
If you’re travelling back home from Wrexham General, please book a train after 11.30am on the day the retreat finishes. There is no way of getting at Wrexham General by public transport before 11.30am.
By Car:
Make for Corwen, which lies on the A5. Leaving Corwen heading west on the A5, go straight on at the traffic lights (about 1 mile west of Corwen). Shortly after, almost opposite the new Rhug Organic Farmshop on your left, take the next right signed to Betws Gwerfil Goch. (N.B. If you are driving south along the A494, you will meet the A5 at the aforementioned traffic lights, where you turn right.) Take the second road on the left (exactly 0.4 miles from the A5 ) and continue for another two miles on the narrow farm road. Vajraloka is at the very end of this road (where the tarmac ends!).
