A former slate village with a certain type of raw beauty, Corris is a little tourist honeypot. It is set within the Dyfi Forest and boasts a few attractions such as a craft centre, a centre for alternative technology, along with a narrow-gauge railway and museum. Ohhh did I mention bike trails? It has a never ending supply of them!

Running

A small village just outside of the Snowdonia National Park which is a brilliant base for running. The Corris Round starts here, created by a local lad and his dad during the 2019 lockdown it's a 35-mile loop of the high points around the village. Check out the brilliant video of the first round... filmuphigh.com/the-corris-round
The village itself has a useful shop called Idris Stores. Grab some supplies here or a coffee and cake pre or post run.
The shop is open 10:00 - 14:00 every day apart from Sundays when it's closed.
