The 2015 Eifel Rallye Festival, held 23-25 July in the volcanic Eifel region of Western Germany, saw a banner entry list of more than 150 rally cars turn the idyllic forest and countryside into their raucous playground. The 3-day Eifel Rallye Festival featured five decades of rallying history celebrating their craft over eight stages.

In addition to our full report, Senior Photographer Julien Mahiels also offers the following stunning images from the Eifel Rallye Festival 2015. We split up Julien’s pictures into two galleries. The first gallery starting below features our favorite images, all displayed in the full-width view of Sports Car Digest, while the second gallery can be found on the last page of the article and gives a comprehensive view of all the photographs.
