Triathlon de Royan U Côte de Beauté

The Royan Triathlon is the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself, surpass yourself and experience an unforgettable moment in Charente-Maritime! Opt for the Long Distance format, whether solo or in a team of 2 or 3, and discover a unique sporting and human experience with more than 1,000 triathletes.

The 1.9 km swim will take place in the sea. Don't worry, the water is usually calm, with just a slight current depending on the tides. This year, the start and finish will be on the beach, near the Mirado lifeguard station. You can count on large buoys to guide you throughout the course.

Next comes the bike part. There will be two 46 km loops where you can discover the wonders of the Gironde estuary. You will even have the chance to pass through Talmont, one of the most beautiful villages in France. The route is not too hilly, with only 700 meters of elevation gain in total. But don't let that fool you, it is still a demanding route. You will alternate between very rolling sections on a good surface and small, leg-breaking climbs on the way there and back. The wind from the estuary will not make things easy, but the magnificent view and the passages through the forest will give you a boost to reach the bike park on time.

Finally, the 21 km running course offers you an incredible coastal experience. You will be able to enjoy breathtaking views of the Gironde estuary and the Cordouan lighthouse. There will be two round trips towards Saint-Georges-de-Didonne, where you will be able to admire its new seafront. Most of the course will be along the coast, with some technical uphill passages and even some dry sand sections.

This year, prepare yourself for a memorable arrival with a brand new arrival area!
