SPECTATOR GUIDE: WHERE TO SEE KMD IRONMAN COPENHAGEN

With the great location in the center of a capital and very well developed infrastructure of public transportation it is easy to get around to experience KMD IRONMAN Copenhagen.

The big advantage of KMD IRONMAN Copenhagen is the amazing opportunity to follow the race using the Metro and the S-trains directly to hot spots around the course.

Use public transportation

We advice all spectators to use public transportation to get around – many roads are closed and the metro and S-trains take you straight to the action!

SWIM – AMAGER BEACH PARK

“Don’t you just love the smell of neoprene in the morning?”

Experience the intense and special atmosphere before the start of an IRONMAN. The tension in the air is so deep you can almost cut through it.

Take the metro to Amager Strandpark where the first swim wave goes off at 7.00. The swim can be experienced both from the starting line at the end of Jollevej, while the bridges over the lagoon are also fantastic spectator hot spots.

How to get there: Take the Metro M2 towards “Lufthavnen” and get off at “Amager Strand”

The first spectator hot spot of the Changing Diabetes run course is located at the National Bank, where the participants get off their bikes and slip into their running shoes.

The spectacular transition from 180 km biking to 42,2 km running attracts many spectators all asking the same question: “How can the participants do this?”
