Aux Ateliers

In Miserey-Salines, in the northwestern suburbs of Besançon, Aux Ateliers sets up its indoor track in the peripheral business zone of the Besançon metropolitan area. The site sits in the northern belt of Besançon, easily accessible from the city centre and the ring road. It's an address regularly favoured by Besançon residents on after-work outings, students from local grandes écoles and universities, and families looking for an all-weather format for rainy days or evenings with friends.

The indoor course lets you drive year-round, sheltered from continental Franche-Comté weather. Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver profile, from entry-level models for kids to punchier versions for regulars chasing timed sessions. The indoor format particularly suits family initiation runs, kids' birthday parties, stag and hen parties, seminars, and corporate evenings : a covered setting that works as well in winter snow as in high summer in a region with sometimes harsh winters.

Miserey-Salines is 10 minutes from central Besançon, an hour from Dijon, and 1h30 from Mulhouse via the A36. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: the UNESCO-listed Besançon citadel (one of the finest Vauban fortifications), the historic centre of Besançon and the Boucle (Doubs meander), the Time Museum (Besançon is the French watchmaking capital), the UNESCO-listed Royal Saltworks of Arc-et-Senans 30 minutes away, or a detour to Salins-les-Bains or the Loue valley (the "source" painted by Courbet). An urban karting option for Besançon residents looking for a simple, accessible all-year format 10 minutes from the centre.
