WELCOME TO LOFOTEN!
EY TRIATHLON CLUB – LOFOTEN TRIATHLON 2027
19–22 August 2027
Get ready for something truly special.
In August 2027, EY Triathlon Club heads north for an unforgettable long weekend in one of the most spectacular destinations in the world – Lofoten, Norway.
This is much more than a race trip. It is a shared adventure combining triathlon, breathtaking Arctic scenery, great people and first-class travel arrangements.
Whether you choose the Olympic+, Half Extreme or Extreme distance, the goal is the same: an experience you will remember for a lifetime.

WHY LOFOTEN?
A destination like no other
Steep mountains rising straight from the sea, crystal-clear Arctic water, small fishing villages and spectacular roads make Lofoten one of the most unique places to race a triathlon.
Here, the surroundings are part of the experience.
Travel made easy
We want you to focus on the experience – not logistics.
The group will travel together from Helsinki to Northern Norway on a private charter flight, making the journey smooth and comfortable.
Your bike will be transported separately to Lofoten and will be waiting for you at the destination.
Choose your challenge
There are three race distances to choose from:
OLYMPIC+
1.5 km swim, 45 km bike and 12 km run
A spectacular and accessible way to experience Lofoten Triathlon. The run takes you over Tjeldbergtinden mountain before descending back towards the finish in Svolvær.
HALF EXTREME
1.9 km swim, 100 km bike and 21 km run
A challenging half-distance race through the dramatic Lofoten landscape, finishing with a mountain run over Tjeldbergtinden.
EXTREME
4 km swim, 181 km bike and 42 km run
The ultimate Lofoten challenge. A full day of racing through some of Norway’s most spectacular terrain.
You don’t have to choose the longest distance to have a big adventure. For many participants, Olympic+ will be the perfect way to experience Lofoten Triathlon.

MORE THAN A RACE
The EY Triathlon Club trips have always been about more than crossing a finish line.
We train together, travel together, race together and celebrate together.
Lofoten takes that idea to another level.
During the weekend there will also be opportunities to experience the destination beyond the race itself. The detailed programme will be confirmed closer to the trip.
And of course, supporters are very welcome to join. Bring your partner, family member or friend and experience Lofoten together.
