Drensteinfurt Triathlon

The Drensteinfurt Triathlon is scheduled for Sunday 17 May 2026 in Drensteinfurt, North Rhine‑Westphalia, Germany (near Münster). The 2026 edition is the 4th running of the event; the organiser publishes an official 2026 Ausschreibung (rules and race details) as a downloadable PDF and provides a dedicated registration portal. Registration for the 2026 edition opens on 1 July 2025 at 12:00 (local time) as stated on the site.

The event offers multiple distance options including races for children, youth and adults, and features relay and family categories as well as short and middle distance triathlon formats. Swim stages are held in the Erlbad outdoor pool with controlled starts; cycling uses closed and marshalled roads and the run courses are largely traffic‑reduced, making the event suitable for a wide range of abilities. Organisers publish packet pickup on Saturday 16 May and race-day check-in from 07:30 on Sunday, with staggered start waves from about 08:45 onwards. The event features chip timing and official results, professional photography, a photo gallery and a small on-site triathlon fair (Triathlon Messe). Several race classes form part of regional league/series events (NRWTV and NWC). For contact and organiser information see the event website or the organiser contact ([email protected]).
