The event host city, Gisenyi situated in Rubavu, is a waterfront town on the shores of Lake Kivu, an hour away from the Volcanoes National Park, and makes a good stopover for relaxation after gorilla tracking. Rubavu has red sandy beaches, warm, clean water, and an easy-going tropical character. It is a great place to unwind, soak up the tranquil vibe while bird watching.

Rwanda will provide all the necessary support to ensure an IRONMAN 70.3 in the scenic city of Rubavu is a resounding success,” said Aurore Mimosa, Minister of Sports, Government of Rwanda.
Clare Akamanzi, Rwanda Development Board’s CEO, added, “Rwandans are passionate about sports and the country is quickly becoming one of Africa’s leading destinations for global sporting events. That’s why we are so excited to host IRONMAN for the very first time. Athletes and visitors to Rwanda can expect warm hospitality, spectacular scenery, unique wildlife encounters as well as safe and seamless experiences thanks to robust COVID-19 prevention measures. We invite the world to join us in the lakeside city of Rubavu for IRONMAN 70.3, and experience all Rwanda has to offer.”

Lastly, the multi-lap 21.1km run course spans the shoreline of Lake Kivu along the Rubona peninsula with beautiful vistas of the shoreline.
