Provisional Schedule

Stages marked no spectator access mean just that. A significant amount of work goes into making sure that local residents on the route are happy, and visiting these stages will jeopardise their future use and the future of the rally. Please do not try and visit these stages.

SS1/2 – Gleaner Oil & Gas Cooper Park 1/2 - Where to Park

There are big public car parks available at Lossie Green, a two-minute walk from the Cooper Park. These are easily accessed and signposted from the main A96 through the town. Please park within the bays, and pay & display where applicable to avoid the wrath of the local traffic wardens!! Please note that the car park nearest the Cooper Park is reserved for rally cars and no spectator parking will be allowed here.

 

Please Note

All spectator car parks for the forest stages are arranged by the 63 Car Club (Elgin) for your convenience and safety. All these car parks are manned by local charities and community organisations who, by kind co-operation of the local Forest Enterprise offices, will keep 100% of the proceeds collected on the day. Please help these people make their day as enjoyable as possible by giving them your co-operation when using the car parks.

 

SS3 – Ashgrove Motor Body Co./Grove Motors Tauchers Wood - Where to Park

The car park for this stage is on the forest road from Gateside farm, accessed off the A95 Keith-Dufftown road. Turn right off the A96 just before Keith and follow the A95 for approx. 3 miles before following signs and turning left onto unclassified road. Follow this road for approx 1 mile before entering the forest at Gateside Farm. There is no access to the Stage Start or Stage Finish as there is no parking available on the A95. Anyone parking on the verges of this road is at risk of being towed away by the Police who will be patrolling the area. Parking charge is £3 per car.

 

Service – Huntly Auction Mart / AM Philip - Where to Park

There is no spectator parking at the Service Area this year, but limited parking may be available in the Industrial Estate on the opposite side of the A96. As this is a very busy road at all times, and will even more traffic this weekend we do not recommend this however. If you do decide to go to the Service Area, please pay attention at all times as cars will be entering & exiting their Service bays throughout the day. There is no parking allowed on the verges of the A96 in the vicinity, and anyone attempting to park here will be towed away – you have been warned. Food is available in the Service Area.

Please obey the marshals on duty, and DO NOT try to access the Service Area off the A96 as in previous years, as there is no provision for parking here!

 

SS5 – Billy Miller Contractors/Elgin Motorcycles Balloch - Where to park

The car park for this stage is accessed from the A96 at Coachford, halfway between Keith and Huntly. Follow the road signposted Coachford from the A96, and then, after half a mile, turn left into the forest. Follow the forest road approximately one mile and park and park sensibly on the forest road. Please be aware that there are residents on this road so please drive with consideration and park sensibly. Parking will cost £3 per car.

To serve this purpose the road will be closed in one direction and cars will only by allowed to travel from the A96 to the B9016. Parking is in a field not far from the stage entrance, so please follow marshals instructions and park sensibly. Due to problems last year, no parking is permitted on the road. Parking will cost £3 per car. The entrance to the stage is approximately one mile from the junction at the A96. On exiting the car park head towards the B9016, turning left at the junction will take you towards Elgin, via Fochabers. Turning right will take you towards Keith.
