The Challenge Barcelona Triathlon is an annual sporting event that takes participants from sea to mountains across the city. The race begins with a swim at Mar Bella beach, continues by bike through the Maresme area and finishes along Barcelona’s seafront promenade. Whether taking part or watching, you experience a city transformed: from the gentle murmur of the Mediterranean at the start to the challenging climbs through neighbourhoods and parks.
This is good to know
What makes the Challenge Barcelona Triathlon special is that it welcomes everyone to the starting line, from seasoned professionals to complete beginners.
The event is renowned for its dedication to inclusion, with specific categories for athletes with intellectual and physical disabilities.
One of the most moving moments is seeing triathletes cover the final 100 metres alongside their children or relatives – a final sprint full of heart and companionship.
