- Me and my friend rode the official Ironman Switzerland Thun bike course to show you guys how hard or not hard the course really is. If you have any questions write on the comment section bellow and i will try to answer them all.
About the Ironman Switzerland Thun:
Pristine waters and majestic mountains
The majestic Alps - reflected in the pristine waters of Lake Thun - welcomes athletes to Thun, the new home of IRONMAN Switzerland. This race took place in Zurich for 23 years before moving to its new home, a celebration of the Swiss mountain culture and landscape. Spot the three famous peaks Eiger, Mönch & Jungfrau right from the event site and marvel at the beauty of this otherworldly landscape.
About the bike course: 2022 Best bike course award winner!! The two-loop 180.2 km (112 mile) bike course takes athletes towards Spiez where they turn away from the lake and into Gürbe valley. The course continues towards Berne Airport and the Gantrisch area. A smooth downhill gets you back to transition.
Total climb: 2200 m (1100m per loop)

Thank you! Very helpfull an nice to see the course.
Thank you for your comment. Happy to read you liked and that it helps. See you there
Habe die Strecke vor 2 Wochen aus Neugier komplett abgefahren. Da ich in Bern wohne, kannte ich die meisten Abschnitte bereits. Ich finde die Strecke sehr kurzweilig. Bin gespannt, was ich nächstes Jahr raushauen kann. Ich habe kein Tri-Bike. Nur ein Rennrad. Finde aber auch, dass man auf dieser Strecke mit dem Tri-Bike sehr gut umgehen können muss. Hat sehr viele Kurven, ziemlich steile Abfahrten. Ich hätte total Schiss auf nem Tri-Bike 🙂
Thanks for the video
Looked at it a couple of times already
1 week out of my first IM there :)
Just hope it won’t rain too bad as i am with TT, carbon wheels and not a disc brake :)
I see there are some technical descents
ALL the best to all participants next week, see ya all there
Thanks, Nathan! Glad you liked the video. Don't worry, the descents aren't too technical. I’m sure you’ll rock your first IM! Good luck and enjoy the race! 🚴♂️💪. See you there
Great video! Great help! Looking forward to my first IM in Thun this year 😎
Thx a lot. Wish you all the best for your first IM in Thun..You chose a great one 👍! I have two other IM Thun race videos on my youtube page too, 2022 and 2023 edition, check it out! Good trainings and see you there at the finish line 💪!
Thank you for putting this together - it's an awesome resource for us out-of-towners. Are there any sections that are known for their omnipresent headwind that we should know about?
Hi 🙋🏻♂️. Thank you for the comment. Happy it helps and that you liked the video. Last year I had a bit of head wind on the bridges section, but it's not always like this. I hope ot helps. Wish you a great time during the race. enjoy it 💪
Thank you, this is good to know. Hope you have a good race!
Thank you very much for sharing! My first full Ironman 🤩
You welcome!! Hope it helps if you don't know the course! How awesome its your first one, im sure you will rock it!!! If you see us filming come say hi 🙋🏻♂️! See you there 🏁
Great video - looking for a course to do my first full distance for next year. I always thought it was a hilly course but it looked more rolling. Thanks for sharing. Cheers
thx for the comment! I absolutely recommend IM Thun. Yes it is a rolling course with stunning views!! cheers
Look at Ironman Florida for a fast and flat course.
Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to Thun in 3 weeks time. Looks a course that is not technical and certainly a lot of areas to attack post the declines.
You're welcome! Hope it helps to show a bit of everything. Yeah it's not technical and definitely lot of areas to attack 💪! See you there. come say hi on race day or registration day. #vamos 🏁
Love the music! I'm looking to sign up for this for 2024. I'm debating my road or tri bike, are there any hairpins? I took my road bike to Ironman Nice last year because of all the climbing and the advanced technical descents. The video doesn't show the course to be as complicated as Nice, can you compare or recommend between the road and tri bike? Thanks! See you in July!
Thx a lot! Yes go for it, its a beautiful race and the bike course is really awesome! I recommend the TT bike. No need for a road bike on this one. No hairpins. You will be fine with the TT 💪! happy trainings and see you there 🏁
Rapperswil-IronMan climbs were more tough and steep. Definitely count me in on this one for next year!
The 5 climbs in Rappi are really different than the ones here in Thun. The Elevation gain per 90k are basically the same and in my opinion the climbs in Thun are not so steep "just one of them" but longer compared to Rappi. It is really a very beautiful course!! Hope to see you there next year 💪! Vamos 🏁
Salut,
je vais l'ironman le 7. J'ai un shiv specialized mais pas très puissant car 1.72m et 64kgs. J'ai 52x36 11x28...tu penses que ça passe ou il me faut un 11x30 ?
Cool video! Full disc wheel doable in all possible conditions you reckon?
I love to ride with disc wheel. For this course it was hard on the climbs but it worked. If you are not used to ride full disc then i would recommend a normal set for a course like this one. And yeah, if its raining i opt for a normal set too! Cheers
