Karting Dijon-Prenois

In Prenois, in the Côte-d'Or, Karting Dijon-Prenois sets up its outdoor track on the legendary Dijon-Prenois circuit, one of the historic high places of French motorsport that hosted the French Formula 1 Grand Prix between 1974 and 1984. The site sits in the northwestern Dijon belt, easily accessible from the city centre and the A38. It's a reference address for motorsport enthusiasts and a true pilgrimage site for historic F1 fans.

The outdoor karting layout offers a technical course suited to sporting practice, in line with the Dijon-Prenois circuit's motorsport philosophy (the track where Gilles Villeneuve and René Arnoux delivered one of the most legendary duels in F1 history in 1979). Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver profile, from entry-level models for kids to punchier versions for regulars chasing timed sessions. Conditions shift with continental Burgundian weather : faster and drier in summer, more demanding on rainy days. The site welcomes sessions among enthusiasts, stag and hen parties, upscale seminars, and championships.

Prenois is 15 minutes from Dijon, 30 from Beaune, and 1h30 from Lyon via the A6. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: Dijon and the Palais des Ducs de Bourgogne, the UNESCO-listed historic centre of Dijon, Côte d'Or landscapes, Beaune and the Hôtel-Dieu Hospices, the Cistercian Cîteaux abbey, or a detour to Châteauneuf-en-Auxois listed Plus Beaux Villages. A premium karting option for enthusiasts on a pilgrimage to the legendary grounds of the French F1 Grand Prix.
