THE NORTHERNMOST
IRONMAN RACE
IRONMAN Finland Kuopio-Tahko on 8.8. 2020.
So it happened. After all the triathlons, MTB races, swim runs and orienteering championships, we finally landed the challenge of challenges – IRONMAN Finland Kuopio-Tahko 2020. All of our efforts on making our town a world class holiday resort area and a preferred venue for large topnotch events, have paid off. We are delighted to welcome you IRONMAN athletes, families, friends and sponsors from all over the world – our town is all yours.
Tahko, the new IRONMAN village, is a lively ski holiday resort town nested right in the heart of Finland’s Lakeland area. We call this area Lakeland because of its breathtaking natural scenery and its numerous pure lakes. The town’s character is described best by its vibrant events and activities, luxury and high-end accommodations, gastronomical experiences and utmost hospitality. The Finnish changing seasons, from snowy winters to colorful autumns, make Tahko a favorite destination for all kinds of outdoor sports enthusiasts.
