Lunde Canal Triathlon has brought swimming, cycling and running to Lunde by the Telemark Canal. The 2026 event took place on 29 August. As of this check, the organiser has not confirmed a 2027 date, course or registration. Treat 2027 as a planning horizon, not a confirmed race.

Check the next edition before booking
The Norwegian Triathlon Federation’s 2026 calendar documents the previous edition, while IL Skade publishes local race information. Check the organiser’s current page for the next date, distances, age groups, entry deadlines, start times and course map. Do not rely on last year’s route or fees.

Plan for athletes and supporters
Previous editions have included options for different ages and relay teams, but the next programme may differ. Allow time for equipment checks and arrival before the start. Supporters should follow marshals’ instructions and keep the course clear. When the race is over, Lunde lock, the canal and Vrangfoss can turn the trip into a longer stay.
