PERFECT  TRIATHLON TRAINING GROUND....

"We have discovered a truly idealistic training ground for Triathletes and Duathletes and then we created  excellent places for you to stay"

Whether you are a club group, an individual  training for your first sprint distance, or a veteran puting yourself through yet another Ironman event, the Pyrenees Orientales offers you all you need, wrapped up with a favourable climate and topped with easy and affordable access.


The region also hoasts several excellent Triathlon and Duathlon events which can be incorporated into your stay. Entrance fees are often much lower (and greater prize money) than in England but the standard is high.


Training breaks are more accessable and affordable  than you may think. We offer  three Triathlon venues with tailor made training and coaching and a qualified and experienced coach on hand throughout your stay.
