WE’RE HERE TO MAKE THE JOURNEY POSSIBLE
AND SUPPORT YOU ALL THE WAY.
THE START
The start of your adventure takes place in Windsor, Berkshire at the fantastic Dorney Rowing Centre. Registration, transition, parking and other event facilities will be available here.
THE SWIM
The swim start is located a short walk from the event village and transition, this picturesque calm swim is the perfect start to the day. The swim starts on an open basis and you can enter the water and start your day anywhere within the 15 minute window meaning you don’t have to get caught up in the bustle if you so wish.
TRANSITION SWIM – BIKE
Upon exiting the water you enter transition where your bike bag and bike will be ready for you. In transition, you’ll be able to use the facilities to get ready and wait for your buddies before heading out on to the bike course.
THE BIKE
The bike section of the event takes place as a sportive with the emphasis on the enjoyment of the ride rather than how long it takes you to complete it. Along the marked 67mi route there are aid stations, toilets, mechanical assistance and marshals positioned at key locations. Details of the current route can be viewed on the route page.
TRANSITION BIKE – RUN
On completion of the bike stage, you will hand your bike to the transport team who will safely transport your bike to the finish line or back to Windsor. You’ll then head inside into Hassocks Sports Centre to collect your run bag and get ready for the run. Changing facilities, toilets and a feed station are available for you here. When ready, you can then head straight out to the run course.
THE RUN
The challenging run section of the event takes place over fully marked trails through the South Downs with road sections kept to a minimum. Along the way there are aid stations, toilets and marshals positioned at key locations. Details of the current route can be viewed on the route page.

What is a sportive triathlon?
In short it means this is a non competitive event and as such is not governed by the normal competitions rules of British Triathlon.
By focusing on the challenging journey itself and shedding the idea of a race Castle to Coast opens ups number of possibilities otherwise closed such as our non standard distances, relaxed starts, less restrictions around equipment, and most importantly the ability to complete the journey alongside your friends and club mates.
