Lochore off-road Triathlon Festival : Lochore Meadows Country Park
The Lochore off-road Triathlon Festival takes place at Lochore Meadows Country Park on 4 October 2026 and comprises multiple off-road multisport races with open water swimming in Loch Ore. Detailed pre-race information and a race briefing will be emailed in the week before the event. Registration is at the park centre in a white marquee behind the new park centre building.
Open water swims take place in Loch Ore with safety cover. The 1 km swims are two laps of 500 m with an Aussie style beach exit after lap one. The 500 m swims are single laps. Wetsuits are required for open water swims in Scotland.
Triathlon Scotland recommends mountain bikes for events that include cycling. Cross and gravel bikes are permitted only if they do not have drop handlebars; referees may stop participants using drop handlebars. Only competitors riding a mountain bike can use this event to qualify for GB age group events. The full distance triathlon counts towards the 2026 Triathlon Scotland cross triathlon rankings series.
Facilities at the park are available for non-competing supporters. Competitors receive a post-race drink, a snack and a race memento. Race passes required by British Triathlon for non-members will be checked at registration.
