to the Principality of Monaco and to a weekend of triathlon fun! This Race Guide is an addition to the Online Race Briefing that has already been sent out. Should you have any questions, please come see our team at the Information booth at the Larvotto!

2 2km A land of enchantment located on

the edge of the Mediterranean, the Principality of Monaco stretches over an area of 2km2 , 40 hectares of which is reclaimed land from the sea. Monaco extends along a narrow strip, 4km long, between the French and Italian Riviera and enjoys a privileged climate throughout the year.

The Formula 1 of Triathlons

TriStar111 Monaco features a 1km swim in the clear Mediterranean on the Larvotto beach, followed by a breathtaking bike leg of 100km across picturesque, typical villages of the hinterland of Nice with unbelievable views. The most stunning part, though, is the 10km run along the original Formula 1 circuit in the heart of the Principality on the Côte d’Azur. Enjoy every second as you run through the Portier roundabout, the famous Tunnel, along the yacht harbour, around Rascasse, before turning at Sainte Devote to the steep climb up the Avenue d’Ostende to reach Avenue de Monte Carlo at the Foot of the Hotel de Paris. Keep your eyes open as you continue for the first time in history - across the majestic Place du Casino, past the front of Café de Paris and change gears running downhill along the hairpin bends of Monaco before going on the second loop. Thank you for choosing TriStar111 Monaco and for proving that you’re up to brand new challenges. The unique TriStar circuit has been invented for you and you should spend an unforgettable time in the Principality of Monaco at the most exclusive Triathlon in Europe. Yes, you can!
