Join us to race through the glorious rural idyll of Yorkshire and the Howardian Hills. Pick your discipline - triathlon, duathlon, aquabike, aquathlon, swim and run - and choose a distance from starter to elite. Recruit your friends and celebrate completing your challenge in our festival village.

Swim through Castle Howard’s Great Lake, cycle through the Howardian Hills, run through the undulating countryside of the estate before a sprint finish tops everything off in style right in front of the main doors of the house.

Throughout the weekend, athletes and spectators will be able to enjoy a fun-packed festival village featuring live music, shopping, food and drink, children’s entertainment, yoga and more.

The weekend will host a huge range of races for all ages and abilities. Whether you’re 9 or 90 years old, a first-timer or an elite, you can pick from our triathlon, duathlon, aquabike, aquathlon, run and swim races. We have relays and mixed relays too!
