From Thursday, August 31 to Sunday, September 3, the Langwies International Hill Climb will take place. More than 160 vehicles will make a comeback of emotions this year. This is what you should know: it will again be held in the categories Competition, [...]
You should know that: it will be raced again in the categories Competition, Uniformity and Demonstration class, whereby the field of the Uniformity class is the largest. Among the participating cars there are some collector's items: for example a Porsche 914-6 or the Mercedes 300 SL. There will also be an Austin Mini Cooper S, probably the most famous small car of all time. The historic sports and racing cars of the past 90s alone, starting with a Cadillac Racer from 1926 to the Audi Sport Quattro from the 80s, are worth the trip to Arosa.
The visit of the paddock is free of charge
The paddock at the Ochsenbühl sports facility next to the event hall can be visited free of charge. Every car fan is therefore cordially invited to view the valuable, in some cases unique, precious and unique vehicles of times gone by. Once again, the Arosa ClassicCar begins on Thursday with the opening ceremony and the vehicle parade through Arosa.

Arrival is recommended by car or train
For the journey to Arosa you should definitely use public transport. The reason: as the route to Arosa will be closed several times during the race weekend, you have to expect longer waiting times.
