Compiegne Forest & Pierrefonds Rally – This rally takes you through the Compiegne Forest, the second largest forest in France covering 35,620 acres. Its oak and beech lined roads criss-cross the forest where both the Armistice of 1918 and of 1940 were signed, one ending the first World War and the other where France surrendered to Nazi’s some 22 years later. The village of Pierrefonds is on the south-east edge of the Compiegne Forest, best known for the Chateau de Pierrefonds and its picturesque village. The castle is one of the most impressive and photogenic in France and because of its multitude of spires and towers and its ‘unspoiled’ appearance it has been often used as a film set including the recent Merlin television series.
