Várvölgy is a village in Keszthely District, in Zala County, Hungary. Its name translates to Castlevalley; Vár (castle) + völgy (valley).

== Location == Várvölgy is on the eastern edge of the Keszthely Plateau, in the Tátika group, along the 7342 road that plays an important role in connecting Tapolca and Keszthely, stretching between Lesencetomaj and Zalaszántó. It is connected to Keszthely by the 7343 road, and the 73 157 road leading to Vállus starts at its southern border. The latter continues beyond the inhabited area of Vállus (without the previous numbering) all the way to Balatongyörök, but that section is a limited-traffic forestry road.
