Spooky Dam Tour with Halloween Disco

Join us for a day packed full of fun, laughter and spooky surprises. Why not combine our Spooky Dam Open Day earlier on in the afternoon from 1pm to 4pm with our Halloween Disco Party at 4:30pm to 6:30pm on Wednesday 29th October.

Adults: £5 for dam entry, disco free entry for adults

Children: £15 for dam entry and disco

*Children must be supervised by an adult at both events*

Spooky Dam Open Day 1pm to 4pm (30 minute sessions):

Take a walk through Penbont Woods and enter Pen Y Garreg Dam - if you dare!

Test your bravery inside the dam before emerging onto the central platform and claim your Halloween prize (prize is for under 18s only). Continue your journey back through the dam, through the woods and back to your car. Watch out for surprises along the way.

Disclaimer: The dam will be decorated and a bit spookier than usual! This may involve some spooky noises and things that may make you jump. Costumes are optional but also encouraged!

Halloween Disco 4:30pm to 6:30pm (2hours):

Top off your Halloween experience at the Elan Valley by coming to our Halloween Disco back at the Visitor Centre once you have been through Pen Y Garreg Dam. Get ready for a frightfully fun time with a mixture of games, crafts and tasty treats!

Games & Craft Activities include:

🎯 Poke a Pumpkin

🍏 Apple Bobbing

🧙 Peek-a-Boo or Guess Who?

🎨 Pumpkin Crafts

🎳 Ghostly Skittles

🔍 Indoor Scavenger Hunt

🎶 Enjoy music, delicious food, and plenty of Halloween cheer!

Guests should be able to climb around 40 steps in both directions to get into the dam as well as a series of steps in the woodlands.

Waterproofs and sturdy footwear (Wellies or Walking Boots) is highly recommended for the Dam Open Day part of the event as the paths can be muddy and there are steps and wet areas in the dam.

Costumes are encouraged!

Please also remember to bring your printed/downloaded booking confirmation.

Arrive at Penbont car park and follow the instructions to walk to the dam within your chosen slot.

Walk though Pen y Garreg dam at your own pace to the central tower where under 18s can collect a Halloween treat, then continue your journey through the dam, down through the woodlands and back to your car. Head to the Visitor Centre afterwards for the Disco where there will be music, games and lots of fun.
