The 2025 Forest Rally builds on the success of last year’s event, with reconnaissance scheduled for Thursday 22 and Friday 23 May. We’ll officially kick things off with the Ceremonial Start on the Busselton Foreshore on Friday evening, before two big days of rally action based out of the scenic town of Nannup — around 260km south of Perth.

ARC and WARC crews will cover around 450km across the weekend, including nearly 188km of flat-out competition across 17 closed-road Special Stages. The Nannup Service Park will once again be the hub of activity, complete with a Rally Café running all weekend to keep everyone fuelled up.

The 2025 Forest Rally counts towards the following:

  • 2025 EROAD Australia Rally Championship
  • 2025 ARC Plant Hire WA Rally Championship
  • 2025 ARC Plant Hire WA 2WD Rally Championship
  • 2025 WA Clubman Masters Series
  • 2025 WA Clubman Cup Series
