The Rob Roy Hillclimb, Australia's oldest purpose-built Hillclimb, was established in 1937 at Christmas Hills, about 30 kilometres from the centre of Melbourne. Hillclimbing, in which cars are driven uphill one at a time against the clock, is one of motorsport's oldest events and was first held in 1897 in France.
