2026 USAT Challenge Roth Tour

USA Triathlon is racing Challenge Roth in 2026! Athletes and spectators will love our Nuremberg-based itineraries for 5-night or 7-night travel options. Now that you’ve got your race entry, make the travel aspects a breeze when you book one of the USAT Challenge Roth Tours through RaceQuest. With 12 years of experience guiding thousands of athletes and guests through this race week, we have the on-the-ground expertise to make your race week seamless.

We offer the tour in two versions: 5-nights or 7-nights. While both tours are comprehensive and turn-key, the 7-night tour that begins on Tuesday, June 30 includes some additional amenities and more time to acclimate to the time zone. Below we detail everything included in both packages, plus some post-Roth travel options.

Let the energy of the fans carry you up the world-famous “Solar Hill.”
