Montgomery Canal Marathon Triathlon

The Montgomery Canal Marathon Triathlon is an endurance event held in Newtown, Powys, along a 27-mile stretch of the Montgomery Canal. Participants can cycle, canoe, and walk the full course or choose one or two sections, making it suitable for families, groups, and individuals of varying abilities. The route starts with a 12-mile cycle mostly on towpaths, followed by a 5-mile canoe section through locks, and finishes with a 10-mile walk on flat terrain featuring some stiles and road crossings.

The event celebrates canal restoration efforts and offers commemorative slate medallions to finishers. Support includes water stations, transport back to the start, and equipment hire options. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
