SPRINT & OLYMPIC DISTANCE
After a thorough renovation, our trip to the middle of the forest in 2025, and the World Rowing Championships in August, we are returning to our familiar spot at the Bosbaan in September. So, we will be swimming in the Bosbaan again. We are, however, keeping the cool cycling course from 2025, which allows us to offer the OD again as well.
We conclude with an entirely new and beautiful running course!

In 2026, we will be back at our old and familiar spot at the Amsterdamse Bosbaan. But with the same beautiful 8km cycling loop straight through the forest and along the stunning Bosbaan. We are very happy about this, because it allows us to continue offering the Olympic Distance to you! This has also led us to mark out a new running course, and it promises to be a wonderful run!
We look forward to seeing you again at the event grounds next to the KNRB and OKEANOS at Bosbaan 10.
This year, 2026, we are back at our familiar old location! So we are swimming in the Bosbaan again, but cycling the same course as in 2025. A really cool 8KM loop through the forest. Followed by a beautiful new 5KM run course. Check out this interactive map and click on Swim in the top left to see the Bike and Run as well.

SPRINT & OD
Thanks to the new cycling course with an 8 km loop, we can organize an Olympic Distance at this location alongside the Sprint! The Sprint distance is a great experience and a really cool race for both the beginner and the more trained triathlete! The fast and beautiful course, straight through the Amsterdam Forest, also makes for a challenging Olympic Distance race.
Sprint: 750 m swimming, 24 km cycling, 5 km running
Olympic: 1500 m swimming, 40 km cycling, 10 km running
You can pick up your race number on the day of the race at the registration desk on the event grounds near the Finish.
You will receive a package from us containing all the essentials, such as your BIB number, sticker sheet, swim cap, timing chip, and—if you ordered and paid for it yourself—your finisher shirt, lock lace laces, and/or race number band.
Toilets and catering facilities can be found at the event grounds near the finish. Our partners and sponsors can also be found at the event grounds with their (sales) stands.
DTS also has its own fun merchandise tent and offers a cool collection of trisuits, bike jerseys, hoodies, race number bands, water bottles, and many more great triathlon items. Come by to try things on and shop!
Your supporters are very welcome here to cheer you on. There is also ample opportunity for your supporters to cheer you on outside at the finish line.
Don't have a wetsuit? No problem!
Participants in DTS competitions can rent these. Order and pay during your registration.
Wetsuit Rental Price = €55. The wetsuit will be sent to your home address by Dare2Tri (not by us) approximately 10-14 days before the race. A return label is included so you can return the wetsuit yourself free of charge after the race. Wetsuits cannot be dropped off at DTS.
