Wombwell Karting

About Wombwell Karting

Wombwell Karting is an 865-metre outdoor circuit on Station Road at Wombwell, near Barnsley. It is important to be clear about what it is: this is an owner-driver circuit, not a hire-kart venue. The site states plainly that it does not offer corporate karting and is owner-driver only.

The Circuit

The circuit runs to 865 metres outdoors. Because it caters for owner drivers rather than a hire fleet, the kart specification depends on what you bring: the venue accommodates Bambino, Cadet, Junior, Senior Rotax, X30, ProKart and electric categories, along with IAME and Honda machinery.

Who Should Visit

This one is for people who already own a kart, or families getting into competitive karting. Drivers are welcomed from age 6 upward through the class structure.

If you are looking for an arrive-and-drive session, a stag do or a corporate day, this is not the venue — the circuit says so itself. For that, the indoor and hire-kart tracks around Sheffield, Leeds and Doncaster are the better option, and you will find them on our Yorkshire page.

Planning Your Visit

The circuit is on Station Road, Wombwell, Barnsley S73 0BJ.

As an owner-driver facility, practice days, race dates and entry arrangements are handled through the circuit rather than an online booking system. Contact the circuit directly for the calendar, entry requirements and any licence or class rules that apply to you.
