Rochlitzer Bergtriathlon 2026

The Rochlitzer Bergtriathlon begins in Rochlitz, a small town in Saxony, Germany. The race headquarters are located near Am Markt 1, with cobblestones situated near the water and countryside. It follows the standard triathlon format: swim, road bike, then asphalt run. The event typically takes place in early September, offering short and middle distances, including Triathlon S, Triathlon M, and relay options. The sprint race also holds Saxony Championship status. The course incorporates lakes and ponds for the swim, public roads for the bike segment, and asphalt for the run. Individual competitors can opt for a demanding solo effort, while relay teams can divide the three disciplines. The specified race distances are 24.5 km and 51 km, suitable for those seeking a challenge beyond a fun run but not a full long-distance triathlon. The Rochlitzer Bergtriathlon is one of the oldest triathlon events in eastern Germany.
