Challenge Peguera Mallorca

Challenge Peguera Mallorca returns on Saturday 16 October 2027 as a short-course triathlon (listed by the organiser as the T100 Challenger distance). The race starts at Torà Beach in Peguera, in the municipality of Calvià on Mallorca’s south-west coast, and finishes in the town.

Routes and distances

• Swim: 2 km, starting from Torà Beach as two out-and-back loops of about 950 m with a short run up the sand between them.
• Bike: 80 km, ridden as two 40 km laps.
• Run: 18 km, covered in four laps.

A relay option uses the same distances. Alongside the main race, the programme includes a Challenge Women run (4.3 km, Friday 15 October), a junior run (Friday 15 October) and a junior aquathlon (Sunday 17 October), plus a Zumba class on Thursday 14 October. The organiser has not published the 2027 race start time on the pages we checked, so confirm it in the event schedule.

Registration

Registration for 2027 is open through the link on the organiser’s website, with an early-bird tier that was due to close on 18 October before moving to higher prices. Check the current price and availability on the official website.

Why race it

This is a seaside race with a lap-based bike and run, which means spectators can follow athletes several times in the centre of Peguera. The swim starts directly from the beach, and the surrounding programme of junior, women’s and social events makes it easy to turn race weekend into a family trip.

Where to stay

Peguera is compact enough that staying in town means your hotel is a short walk from Torà Beach, the boulevard run course and the finish area. Arriving the day before gives you time for bib collection and a calm look at the transition zone, and on race morning you avoid any transfer before the swim start. Afterwards, the pool, spa or massage you have been promising yourself are right on the doorstep. These certified Cycling Friendly hotels all sit within a couple of kilometres of the start.

It also lists lockers, laundry, massage, a fitness room and a pool, and describes itself as a departure point for events including Challenge Paguera.
