# Road bike and triathlon holiday in the Fuschlseeregion

Road bike and triathlon holiday in the Fuschlseeregion
======================================================

Triathlon is becoming more and more popular and is not only trendy among competitive athletes. With the sports of swimming, cycling and running, triathlon combines three great sports disciplines that you can do with relatively little effort. We would like to convince you of the excellent triathlon training conditions in the Fuschlseeregion and invite you to get to know the racing bike region at Lake Fuschl.

"Don't make every round count. Make every lap count!"
-----------------------------------------------------

Triathlon-Training
------------------

With the sports of swimming, cycling and running, triathletes take care of exactly what many people lack in their everyday lives, regular exercise. In addition to the exercise aspect, triathlon is also about the sporting challenge - against the competition, against oneself or simply against one's own inner pig.

Swimming
--------

Both at the Fuschlsee and at the Hintersee you can manage a comprehensive swim training. With a length of 4.2 km and a width of 800 m, you can easily complete all the distances of the triathlon variants at Lake Fuschlsee. The smaller Hintersee, with its length of 1.4 km and width of 700 m, also offers good training conditions for the triathlon discipline of swimming. From the end of April to the end of September, the outdoor pool of the Fuschlseebad is also available for swim training.

Cycling

Running
-------

In the Fuschlsee region there are many attractive running routes to train on. Whether on asphalt, on gravel or in the mountainous alpine terrain of the Osterhorn group - the choice is large and ranges from easy running routes to ambitious trail running routes. The routes around [Lake Fuschl](https://fuschlsee.salzkammergut.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/100236/fuschlseerundwanderweg.html "Link öffnet sich in neuem Fenster") and [Lake Hintersee](https://fuschlsee.salzkammergut.at/en/oesterreich-poi/detail/430023113/bewegungsarena-faistenau-hintersee.html) are particularly popular for running training. The running circuit around Hintersee is 5 km long. With a length of 11.1 km and few metres in altitude, you can even manage a half marathon if you run around Lake Fuschl twice.

Triathlon-Training in the Fuschlseeregion
-----------------------------------------

There are a total of 5 triathlon variants, the supreme discipline being the Ironman. Here we have put together an example of a sporty training session for you: The triathlon sprint variant between mountains and lakes in the Fuschlsee region:

You start on the shore of Lake Fuschl, swim across the lake from the east to the west shore. Then get on your bike and pedal hard. The bike course leads over approx. 20 km from Fuschl am See to Faistenau and via Tiefbrunnau on flat and hilly tracks back to Fuschl am See. There you will finish your triathlon training session with a run from the centre of town to the historic Fuschl Castle, where you can replenish your energy stores with culinary delights at the traditional Castle Fishery. An impressive canoe trip across Lake Fuschl will bring you comfortably back to the starting point in Fuschl am See.

### The 5 triathlon variations

- Super sprint: 200 - 400 m swim, 5 - 10 km bike, 1 - 2.5 km run
- Sprint: 500 - 750 m swim, 20 km bike, 5 km run
- Short distance (Olympic): 1.5 km swim, 40 km bike, 10 km run
- Middle distance: 1.9 km swim, 90 km bike, 21.1 km run (half marathon)
