Schottenring, race track
Schottenring is a motorsport racing track located near the town of Schotten in the Vogelsberg region of Hesse, Germany. The track winds through hilly terrain, with a layout that presents varied corners and elevation changes for drivers.
Schottenring has its roots in the early decades of the 20th century, when races were held on public roads around the town of Schotten. Over time, it was developed into an organized racing facility to meet the demands of modern motorsport safety standards.
It is worth checking the event calendar in advance, as the venue is not always open to visitors outside of scheduled race days. On event days, spectator areas around the circuit offer clear views of the track.
The circuit sits in a rural setting surrounded by the wooded hills of the Vogelsberg, which is an old volcanic region, giving it a very different feel from most purpose-built racing venues. The surrounding landscape can be explored on foot, making a visit worthwhile even outside of race weekends.
