International Triathlon of Piopolis - Carrabassett Valley
A lake crossing, a rolling bike course, a nature run on a multifunctional track. Magnificent and fast!
The Piopolis International Triathlon is a unique event that stands out for its audacity and authentic simplicity. We rely on beautiful and rolling landscapes, a warm team, a formula that makes you travel.
The swim is done in the clear and pure Lake Mégantic, crossing from one side to the other in the direction of its width, for a 2 km. The objective is drawn in front: the traditional Piopolis lighthouse, which decorates its marina.
The bike portion is a real gem. Starting from Piopolis, it reaches the American borders after nearly twenty kilometers. Although beautiful views await you on the Canadian side, the portion on American soil is pure pleasure: 70 km on a smooth, wild and quiet road with a rolling and not very boring elevation gain.
Finally, the run on a multifunctional track away from traffic, along the Carrabassett River will end this triathlon in style.
