Kartlandas Kaunas: an indoor circuit on Raudondvario Avenue with four types of kart

Kartlandas Kaunas is an indoor go-kart venue at its current address, 164A Raudondvario Avenue, on the second floor of the building. The operator describes an approximately 300-metre circuit whose layout changes periodically, mandatory safety briefings, and electronic timing. Four kart types serve different groups: DINO Puffo for ages 4-7, DINO Mini for ages 8-12, RiMO EVO6 for drivers aged 12 and over who can reach the pedals, and SODI 2DRIVE for an adult driver with a passenger aged two or over. The official site gives no universal minimum height in centimetres, so staff must confirm the appropriate kart. Old references to 62 Drobės Street, Žemieji Šančiai, or a fourth-floor circuit describe the former venue and should not be used for navigation. On 2026-07-21, a publicly viewable copy of the exact Google Maps listing showed 4.9 out of 5 from 4,909 reviews.

The current venue is at 164A Raudondvario Avenue, not the former address in Žemieji Šančiai

The current official contact block and the exact Google Maps listing both give 164A Raudondvario Avenue, Kaunas 47173. The coordinate 54.9146551, 23.8433086 identifies the venue within the building complex rather than one particular exterior doorway. The current track page says that the circuit is on the building's second floor.

Older pages belonging to the operator still mention 62 Drobės Street, Žemieji Šančiai, and a fourth-floor circuit. Those details describe an earlier Kartlandas venue. Navigate using the Raudondvario Avenue address and place ID ChIJBSsUWOsi50YRLF1Rqrm6aH4, and verify any old gift voucher or article that still displays the previous location.

On 2026-07-21, a publicly viewable copy of the exact Google Maps listing showed 4.9 out of 5 from 4,909 reviews. This very high average indicates strong visitor approval but does not independently prove every promotional claim about size, speed, or safety. Both the average and review count will continue to change.

The roughly 300-metre indoor circuit does not keep one permanent layout

The operator's English page describes a 300-metre circuit, while the current Lithuanian track page emphasises that its configuration changes periodically. This is an indoor leisure circuit with a concrete surface, protective tyre barriers, corners, and electronic timing, not a homologated professional racing venue. The exact sequence of turns may differ from an old plan or video.

Every driver visits the briefing room before entering the track. Staff explain kart controls, the direction of travel, signals, what to do after stopping, and the layout in use that day. The briefing is not a formality: a first-time driver needs to understand braking, lines, and safe following distance before thinking about lap time.

Results are timed and displayed on screens, so groups can compare laps. A changing layout, different kart types, and traffic conditions mean that old times are not always directly comparable. Chasing the fastest lap never permits contact with another kart, deliberate blocking, or ignoring staff signals.

Age bands are published, but the operator gives no universal minimum height in centimetres

DINO Puffo is intended for children aged 4-7. On early attempts, the operator normally places one young driver on the track and provides an extended briefing. DINO Mini is listed for ages 8-12, while RiMO EVO6 is for drivers aged 12 and over who can comfortably reach the pedals. Age guides kart selection, but a birthday alone cannot guarantee that a particular model fits safely.

The official site publishes no single minimum height in centimetres. The practical test is whether a driver can sit correctly, reach the pedals, and control the kart safely, with staff making the final decision. If a child is notably shorter or taller than their peers, give their height when booking and ask the venue to confirm the likely kart type.

SODI 2DRIVE is the two-seater option. It is driven by an adult who qualifies for a standard kart, while the operator permits a passenger from age two. A steering wheel on the passenger side does not mean that the child controls the kart. The twin kart can also suit an older passenger who does not wish or is unable to drive independently, but physical limitations must be discussed in advance.

Price depends on duration, kart type, and whether the session is shared or private

On 2026-07-21, the official tariff listed a standard 10-minute session for an adult or child aged eight and over at EUR 20, and 15 minutes at EUR 27. DINO Puffo for ages 4-7 and the twin kart each cost EUR 25 for 10 minutes and EUR 35 for 15 minutes. Discounts for repeat sessions, passes, promotions, and private-session tariffs have separate conditions. Prices can change, so check the official page before paying.

In an ordinary session, visitors are combined into groups according to circuit capacity. A private session means that only the people requested join your group, but the operator explicitly does not guarantee that this format is available whenever asked. If exclusivity is essential for a birthday, a noise-sensitive child, or a competition, confirm it in writing and check the final price.

Hours published on the check date were Monday to Thursday 12:00-22:00, Friday 12:00-23:00, Saturday 10:00-23:00, and Sunday 10:00-22:00. Holiday and seasonal schedules may differ. Booking is recommended by telephone on +370 696 10 555 or email at kaunas@kartlandas.lt, while advance booking is stated as mandatory for drivers aged 4-7.

A booked slot involves more than the ten minutes spent driving

The operator warns that a booked session can start up to 20 minutes late because of track traffic or other circumstances. If a customer arrives more than 20 minutes late, their place in the queue may be given to someone else. Arrive early enough for check-in, payment, a balaclava, helmet fitting, and the safety briefing.

Comfortable sports clothing and flat, closed shoes are recommended, with gloves suggested in colder weather. Tie back long hair and remove loose scarves, hanging jewellery, and anything else that could become caught. A balaclava is required under a Kartlandas helmet: bring your own or rent or buy one at the venue under the current tariff.

Tell staff about health, mobility, or sensory needs before paying. A kart is low to the ground and requires climbing in and out, while a session involves engine noise, vibration, and exhaust odour. No comprehensive list of medical contraindications was found on the official pages, so consult a doctor and the operator when in doubt.

A reception area and party rooms serve non-drivers, but accessibility needs confirmation

The current track page describes a reception area with seating and screens, four private party rooms, standard rooms for 12-20 people, and a conference room for roughly 50. These are capacities supplied by the operator, not a promise that a preferred room is available with every driving slot. Book the room, outside-food rules, time after racing, and participant numbers separately.

Because the circuit is on the second floor, a visitor with limited mobility should ask in advance about a lift, stairs, an adapted toilet, transfer into a low kart, and a safe viewing area. No comprehensive current access statement was found on the public pages, so it would be inaccurate to describe the whole venue as step-free.

Drivers should navigate to the 164A Raudondvario Avenue complex, but no operator-guaranteed number of free parking spaces was found. Follow signs in the shared yard and do not use spaces reserved for other organisations. When following a strict schedule, allow additional time to find the correct entrance and reach the second floor.
