The Half Distance Triathlon Duisburg is a stunning race staged in one of Germany’s most dynamic urban landscapes. Athletes begin with a 1.9 km swim in the cool, clear waters of Sportpark Duisburg’s regatta course, cheered on by spectators along the shore. A flat and fast 90.1 km bike course follows, looping twice through Duisburg’s cityscape and across the iconic Brücke der Solidarität. The final leg—a scenic, three-lap 21.1 km run—winds through lush parkland, culminating in a memorable stadium finish.
