International Triathlon Holten 2013

Holten and the triathlon sport are inextricably connected to each other. Already the 29th edition of the Triathlon Holten will take place in the summer of 2013.

In 2009 the Holten Triathlon organization hosted the European Championships and in 2010 the first World Cup on Dutch ground took place in Holten. The organization is proud to host the European Championships Youth – U23.

A combination of fanatical and enthusiastic top athletes, recreational athletes and numerous spectators will provide a unique atmosphere: this makes this event so special.
