XTERRA Lake Tahoe
Off-road TRIATHLON
Saturday, September 13, 2025
This is the all-time classic off-road triathlon course. Racers begin with a 1,500-meter swim from a sandy beach in Lake Tahoe, one of North America’s purest and deepest lakes.
The bike stage tests racers’ skills and fitness levels. It starts with a gradual sandy climb up Tunnel Creek. After emerging from Tunnel Creek, racers join the epic Flume Trail, which hugs the mountainside and offers stunning views of Lake Tahoe. They continue past Marlette Lake and descend a somewhat rocky and fast section of the Tahoe Rim Trail. The XTERRA, XTERRA Sprint, and XTERRA Aquabike cover 22 miles on the bike and feature approximately 4,000 feet of climbing.
The running course offers a 5K loop featuring minimal elevation gain that winds through scenic areas filled with aspens and pines. It features a few creek crossings along the way.
