Course details and venue
The swim takes place in the fresh water of Loch Ore with safety cover and is run over two laps; an Aussie-style beach exit is used after lap 1 to re-enter for lap 2. The off-road bike is mixed terrain and fast-flowing, with each lap taking in White Woods, Chapel Chase, Quarry Wood and Lindsay’s Loop; the course includes small technical sections with rocks, roots and mud. The full-distance and aquathlon run uses a mixed-terrain 5 km route that circumnavigates the Clune and an old Iron Age fort before returning along the loch side. The park has facilities and attractions for non-competing supporters. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
