Exciting news for all athletes racing the Durban Ultra Triathlon — we are thrilled to announce the brand new bike route for this year’s event!

The updated course features a fast and scenic 20km loop along Durban’s beautiful coastline, starting from the Promenade, the route follows the M4 with full road closure, and stretches from the Argyle Road intersection and heading north to the La Lucia Mall off-ramp, before turning and returning along the same route. This stretch of road is known for its smooth surface, ocean views and fantastic fast racing conditions, making it perfect for fast times and thrilling competition.

The looped course also means spectators will get to see athletes multiple times, adding even more excitement to race day. Sprint competitors will complete 1 lap (20km), Standard distance athletes will tackle 2 laps (40km), and the Ultra competitors will take on the ultimate challenge of 4 laps (80km).
Get ready for a fast, exciting ride along the Durban beachfront — race day is going to be spectacular!

Registration takes place on Saturday at the Meeting Room, Ground Floor of the Elangeni Hotel on Saturday between 10am and 4pm.
