The bike route leaves the museum area, passes through Widdrington Village and follows the coast towards Druridge Bay and Cresswell. The run follows footpaths through woodland and open grassland around the lake and passes the finish area within the museum at the end of each lap, allowing spectators to view finishes.
The venue has previously hosted national and international qualifiers and championships, including British Triathlon and World Standard Distance Age Group qualifier events in multiple years. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
