Event Details
Course Description
The West Lakes Triathlon takes place at the Aquatic Reserve on Bower Road, offering a picturesque lake swim followed by a flat, fast road bike and run. The 750‑metre Sprint swim and 375‑metre Enticer swim are set in clear lake waters, while the bike routes wind along the West Lakes shoreline and surrounding streets, providing smooth pavement and minimal elevation. Finish lines and the transition area are located near the reserve’s main entry, making it easy to locate. Both distances are designed for a supportive atmosphere, with spectators cheering from the lakeside promenade. Whether you’re tackling the 20‑km bike/5‑km run Sprint or the 10‑km bike/2.5‑km run Enticer, the course delivers a balanced challenge and a rewarding scenic experience.
