Gotland Ring, Swedish sustainable racetrack and driver training venue
Gotland Ring is a motorsport racing track in Gotland County on the Swedish island of Gotland, spanning 7.3 kilometers and ranking among the longest modern circuits of its kind. The course features long straightaways and sharp turns laid on a well-maintained asphalt surface and surrounded by open fields and forests.
The track was founded in the early 2000s by Swedish motorsport fans who wanted a racing location without traveling abroad. Since then, it has grown into a favorite destination for local and international drivers and is primarily used for testing, training, and small racing events.
The name Gotland Ring refers to the island location and the circular path that forms the track layout. The place has become a gathering point for motorsport fans who share their passion for cars and driving in a welcoming community.
The location is most easily reached by ferry from mainland Sweden to the island of Gotland, then by car to the grounds. Visitors should prepare for changeable weather and take advantage of longer summer days for better visibility when watching racing action.
The grounds are known for being used by car manufacturers to test vehicles in cold climate conditions, making it an important location for developing winter cars. This draws engineers and test drivers from around the world who want to check their prototypes under harsh conditions.
