The Dolgoch Falls (also known as the Dol-goch falls, or the Dôl-goch falls (English: 'red meadow falls') are a series of three waterfalls near Tywyn in Gwynedd, North Wales.

The falls are part of the stream called Nant Dôl-goch, which flows into the Afon Fathew. A popular walk from the nearby Dolgoch station on the Talyllyn Railway runs besides the falls.[1] The Dolgoch slate quarry was dug into the west wall of the gorge of the falls.
