Lochore Off Road Triathlon Festival 2026
The Lochore Off Road Triathlon Festival is an off road multi-discipline event organised by Scurry Events at Lochore Meadows Country Park. The 2026 edition is presented as the seventh running and is sanctioned by Triathlon Scotland; the full triathlon is included in the Off Road Triathlon Scotland event rankings.
The event features multiple race formats and distances:
- Full triathlon: 1 km swim, 13 km bike, 5 km run.
- Short triathlon: 500 m swim, 7 km bike, 3 km run.
- Other formats include Aquabike, Duathlon, Aquathlon and a bikeless Aquathlon.
The full swim takes place in the fresh water of Loch Ore and is swum as two 500 m laps with an Aussie style beach exit after lap one. Organisers provide safety cover for open water swimming and describe the venue as a friendly swimming environment.
The off road bike route is a mixed terrain 14.4 km circuit used as three laps for the full and Aquabike races, two laps for the short races and one lap for Tristars. Each lap passes White Woods, Chapel Chase, Quarry Wood and Lindsay’s Loop and includes some small technical sections with rocks, roots and mud.
The full run and the Aquathlon run use a mixed terrain 5 km route that circles the hilly Clune and passes an old ironage fort before returning along the loch side. Short and Tristar run distances are 3 km and 2.4 km. The park provides facilities and attractions for non competing family supporters.
