Rest and Be Thankful Speed Hill Climb

Rest and Be Thankful Hill Climb is a disused hillclimbing course in Glen Croe, on the Cowal Peninsula, in Argyll and Bute, west of Scotland.

[1][2] In 1952 Motor Sport described the course: "The three danger spots on this course which is 1,425 yards [1,303 m] long, and rises over 400 feet [120 m], are Stone Bridge, Cobblers Corner and the hairpin bend at the finish and of course there is always the occasional sheep that has to be driven off the road.

A lot of money needs to be spent on barriers and banks and the Royal Scottish Automobile Club who run the National Open Hill Climb there say it will cost far too much; so this year it will only be used by clubs for restricted events and then no more.

"[5] The venue has also been used for rally special stages and classic car events.

In September 2018 a project to establish a Scottish Motorsport Heritage Centre at the Rest and Be Thankful was granted official charitable status.
