Event Overview
Register

The Sprint Triathlon is open to all athletes looking to experience XTERRA in one of the most scenic venues on the European calendar. With a shorter course that mirrors the Full Distance terrain, it offers a taste of the same climbs, descents and views that define off-road racing in Trentino. For Youth B and Junior athletes representing the region, the race carries even greater meaning as it serves as the 2026 XTERRA European Youth Championship.
