The Full Distance Triathlon in Vitoria-Gasteiz swim covers 3.8 km in a single loop through the pristine Ulibarri-Gamboa Lake, offering steady water temperatures around 70°F (21°C). The 180.2 km bike course is notable for its speed and beauty, traversing the Álava region and historic segments of the Camino de Santiago. The run consists of four flat loops totaling 42.2 km through Vitoria-Gasteiz’s vibrant city center, finishing in Plaza España where support from enthusiastic spectators energizes every step.
