Middle Distance, Challenge Aquabike, Challenge Women, Challenge Aquathlon & Challenge Junior
Challenge, Kaiserwinkl-Walchsee, Swim 
A dreamlike setting, a demanding course, thousands of enthusiasts along the route, top stars from all over the world - these are just a few attributes that can be used to describe the Kaiserwinkl-Walchsee Challenge.
The competitions Aquabike, Challenge Women, Challenge Aquathlon & Challenge Junior as well as the middle distance triathlon as a relay competition, which extend over the entire weekend, round off the family-friendly challenge weekend. Many of the athletes also used this event as an extension of their vacation and so the days before and after that there were still a lot of athletes with their families with us in Kaiserwinkl.
We ask all Challenge participants, during the training preparations in the Kaiserwinkl, to take account of the STVO. We especially ask the cyclists during the crossings, or when driving through unclear areas to reduce the pace to prevent injury and accidents.
