Join us at our multisport event weekend to race through the glorious rural idyll of Yorkshire and the Howardian Hills. Pick your discipline - triathlon, duathlon, aquabike, aquathlon, swim and run - and choose a distance from starter to elite. Recruit your friends and celebrate completing your challenge in our festival village.
At our weekend festival of sport, you can swim through historical Castle Howard’s Great Lake, cycle through the picturesque Howardian Hills and run through the undulating countryside of this stunning estate before a sprint finish tops everything off in style right in front of the Castle main doors!
Throughout the weekend, athletes and spectators will be able to enjoy a fun-packed festival village right in the heart of the Castle Howard estate featuring live music, shopping, food and drink, children’s entertainment, yoga and more.
This multisport weekend event at Castle Howard will host a huge range of races for all ages and abilities. Recommended for both beginners by Tri 247 and seasoned athletes by 220Triathlon!
Whether you’re 9 or 90 years old, a first-timer or an elite, you can pick from our triathlon, duathlon, aquabike, aquathlon, run and swim races. You can also race with a team of friends in one of our relays options!
