Maibacher Triathlon 2026

The Maibacher Triathlon is a sprint-distance triathlon held in Maibach, a district of Butzbach in Hessen, during August. The primary format is concise and accessible: a 300 m swim, a 17 km bike course, and a 6 km run, totaling 23.3 km. FSV Maibach is the organizer, with approximately 300 participants anticipated. The course begins and ends at Schulstrasse 26 in Maibach, featuring a rolling terrain instead of a flat out-and-back route. Individual competitors can participate across various age categories, and teams have the option to divide the swim, bike, and run segments in a relay format. This event marks its 35th year, giving it the character of a local club race with a substantial history, rather than a singular challenge.
