Lombok, Indonesia not only offers a scenic and challenging course for athletes to race, but also a perfect post-race holiday destination for them and their loved ones. We can’t wait to see what this race has to offer!”
 
Renowned for its pristine beaches and untouched scenery, Lombok is an island in West Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia, which forms part of the chain of the Lesser Sunda Islands.

Not only will they be treated to the beautiful scenery but will also experience the world-famous Indonesian hospitality. We look forward to creating a great event experience that everyone can be proud of in Lombok.”
 
The venue of the IRONMAN 70.3 Lombok, Indonesia is concentrated in the village of Mangsit, only minutes north of the tourist town of Senggigi and a few kilometers away from the capital city of West Nusa Tenggara, Mataram. The village of Mangsit offers a quaint contained village of activities for facilities provided to the athletes and their families. All within walking distance, the official hotels are featured on the IRONMAN registration website page, offering value added stay packages for athletes and also extended stay packages for those who want to enjoy Lombok on an extended stay.
 
The 2020 IRONMAN 70.3 Lombok, Indonesia triathlon will debut with a course which runs from the village of Mangsit in West Lombok to the town of Praya in Central Lombok.
 
Beginning and ending at Holiday Resort Lombok, the swim portion will consist of a single-loop 1.9km (1.2-mile) in the immaculate turquoise Bali sea with stunning views of the mountains. Athletes will then embark on a single-loop 90.1km (56-mile) bike course that goes along Raya Sengigi Road towards the City of Mataram and offers picturesque views of the Lombok coastline and the dense nature surrounding the famous Mount Rinjani. Athletes will continue Southeast along the flatter roads before making a U-turn prior to Lombok International Airport.
 
To complete the 113km (70.3-mile) journey, athletes will transition to the two-loop 21.1km (13.1-mile) run course. Athletes will exit T2 at Holiday Resort Lombok and run south towards the area of Senggigi. Athletes will experience a winding course with surreal views overlooking the Bali sea. A U-turn will be made within Senggigi before athletes run back towards Holiday Resort Lombok to complete their first lap. Upon completion of the second lap, athletes will enter the resort ground and finish directly alongside the beach in the lush and tropical gardens of the resort.
