Corris Corner is where you watch aircraft make one of the most dramatic manoeuvres in the Loop — a sharp banking turn as they change direction through the valley system. Positioned here, you see jets arriving, turning hard, and departing on a new heading, giving a very different perspective to the transit views at spots like The Bwlch.
The approach involves a climb of around 300 feet from the roadside, with approximately half a mile of walking. The terrain is rougher than at The Bwlch and the route less obvious — carry OS Landranger 124 and do not attempt in poor visibility without hill walking experience.
If Cad West has a busy day, aircraft banking into Corris Corner after passing can give watchers at Cad West a second opportunity on the same sortie — making the two spots complementary.
