Organiser's Description

A bucket list race for all triathletes. The World’s longest-running IRONMAN with a proud and rich history deeply rooted in our hometown of Taupō. The race itself showcases the best of New Zealand's natural wonderland, and volunteers and thousands of supporters line the streets to cheer you on. You will be welcomed with open arms and will leave enriched with the locals’ pure Kiwi spirit.

Swim in the clear, fresh waters of Lake Taupō, the bike course then heads into the natural geothermal area and thriving farmland surrounding the Lake Taupō District, and the run leads athletes through the town, taking in the lakefront scenery.
