Description of Lydden Hill Race Circuit
Lydden Hill is in Kent, between Canterbury and Dover, about 10 km from Dover. The asphalt circuit opened in 1965 and was extended to one mile (1.6 km) in 1967; it has 4 corners. It is the birthplace of rallycross: the very first race of the discipline was held here on 4 February 1967, on a 1.4 km layout mixing asphalt and dirt. It hosted the FIA World Rallycross Championship from 2014 to 2017, and James Hunt took his first win here in 1968.
The circuit runs car and bike track days, drifting, courses and driving experiences. On site: food outlets, a shop, function rooms and a helicopter landing area.
