The main event is the round of the French National Hillclimb Championship, you can expect to see the quickest cars in Europe.
Many of the professional teams arrive in articulated trucks with several cars on board, it is quite a sight to see. The public are welcome to wander around the paddock and marvel at some the latest cars and tech.
The Saint Gouéno Masters element consists of an entry of invited drivers from the UK and Ireland with a large variety of Classic, Race and Rally Cars competing.
The on course action starts on the Friday with the Historic Hillclimb – A regularity hillclimb with a large selection of cars. Some spaces are available for UK & Irish competitors with pre 1990 cars.
The really quick drivers will be on the hill on the Saturday and Sunday with the Masters Competition supporting the “Championnat de France de la Montagne” French Hillclimb Championship.
In addition to the CFM & Masters on Saturday and Sunday there will be additional drift demonstrations.

The most spectacular vantage point is the crossroads and the esses in the middle section of the hill.
