Back for 2021!.
Unique in the UK and probably the World, the Craggy Island Triathlon will have you swimming across the sound of Kerrera from the mainland to an island to start your race. How cool is that?
The island in this case is the rugged spectacular and completely unspoilt Isle of Kerrera, just off the West coast of Scotland near the busy town and harbour of Oban.
The race is entirely off-road (there are no roads on the island, so there’s not much choice about that!), and will take you from sea level to the highest point of the island with spectacular views across the Firth of Lorne and Sound of Mull.
The race will provide a warm (well, we can’t promise the water will be warm!) and welcome environment for newbies and triathlon beginners, as well as a tough off-road challenge for those who fancy their chances at the head of the field.
Craggy Island 2021 is supporting the new Kerrera School House Community project aiming to restore the islands’ old schoolhouse to become the islands first community hub providing a space for islanders to socialise and hold community events for the first time. Head over to Isle of Kerrera (facebook.com) to find out more and see how you can support them.
