One for the petrol heads!

Something a bit different is taking place in the Wytch Wood valley on 11th and 12th May.

We are hosting a two-day motorsport event, run by the Historic Sporting Trials Association.

During the event, specialist historic trial cars, mainly from the 1960s and ’70s will complete timed trials “sections” on the steep and slippery hillsides surrounding Blackmore Farm.

Historic Car Sporting Trials Weekend at Wytch Wood Camping – 11/12 May 2024

A course will be created on the hills, split into multiple sections and marked out with coloured pegs in different areas. The event is not a race, as only one car will be on a section at any one time – but their overall time is important. The sections are designed to be challenging but achievable and test the skill of the driver on difficult terrain.

You are very welcome to come and watch the trials – there is no charge as a spectator – and you can even stay over. Simply take a look here and book your camping pitch.
