Lough cutra castle Triathlon

Venue

The Castle was built during the Gothic revival period and was once home to now King Charles during a 3-day visit to Ireland. 

The Castle is idyllically situated overlooking the Estate’s 1,000 acre lake (the largest privately owned lake in Europe), home to this event’s open-water swims.
