Hit that 500m sprint segment once more, and the stone arch is your finish line. When you exit the tunnel you’ll soon turn a right to cross another bridge toward the island containing Fuego Flats. This is where the Tempus Fugit route turns around, but for Tick Tock we continue through town and down into the Redwood Forest–the longest descent on the route, but it’s over before you know it!Ĭross the bridge to Ocean Boulevard, then descend into the ocean tunnel. Next you’ll ride through the old town of Desert Flats (watch for the steam engine to come roaring through) then through a gap in the rocks to a hidden oasis complete with a waterfall and dinosaur fossils.Ĭontinue on and you’ll ride into Saddle Springs, the 1950’s-inspired resort town. First you pass the cliff dwellings near the first turnaround loop, then you hit the forward 500m sprint segment.
There are lots of landmarks on this route to make this visually interesting and help you keep your bearings. You’ve got just a bit of gradual climb toward the start line, but nothing more than most cyclists would call a “rise.” You then proceed through the flat tube, hit the ramp up and out, then hang a right toward Fuego Flats. This descent maxes out at 3% and brings you to the entrance of the ocean tube which is a short downhill ramp. 92m/km.)īeginning in Fuego Flats, your trip will be pan-flat until you exit Saddle Springs and descend through the Redwood Forest. This is the second-flattest route in all of Zwift as the time of its release, with 2.6 meters of climbing per kilometer of road. Released as part of Zwift’s Fuego Flats desert expansion, this route is flatter than Watopia Flat or Volcano Flat, with the only pitchy bits being in and out of Fuego Flats, and in and out of the ocean tunnel. Select the route youve built in RoadCaptain Runner, hit the log in button to log in to Zwift and Ride on The Runner app will tell you which route to select in. See the Master Route List for an overview of all routes, distances, elevation and XP.Įach route below is linked to a detailed page of that route on Zwift Insider.“Tick Tock” is a clockwise loop covering Fuego Flats and portions of the Ocean Boulevard tube. The Alpe has 21 hairpin turns and 1060m of elevation.īelow are the available routes in Watopia. Recent releases include Fuego Flats (a flat desert route), Titan's Grove (a rolling hills view through ancient redwoods), Mayan Ruins (dirt track route through the jungle amongst the ruins & temples) and Alpe Du Zwift (a virtual e-creation of Alp d'Huez in France). The Southeast approach to the mountain is long and winding, whereas the Northwest approach is a set of classic switchbacks. With only 53m of elevation new Zwifters won’t have to work too hard to keep us while they figure out what all the on-screen data is telling them.
This route winds through the flat dessert and into the cool underwater tunnel. The highest point of the Mountain Route is reached by a steep gravel climb to a roundabout that encircles a tall radio tower at 516m of elevation, then goes back down the mountain. Tick TockWatopia (16.9km, 53m of elevation) Good for: An intro to Zwift. The routes on the larger mountainous island pass through a German village before ascending into the snowy, alpine-style mountains. The Hilly Route on the small island winds through grassy, tree-spotted rolling hills.To the west of the small island lies a newly formed highly active volcano accessible by a thin strip of land on one side, and a tunnel on the other. It then follows Ocean Boulevard, a long underwater tunnel that splits into either the Mountain Route or the Flat Route. The routes on the small island follow a beachside boardwalk, passing Watopia Pier and several tall buildings. The smaller of the two islands (the Te Anu analog) contains the flat and hilly routes, and the larger contains the mountain route. Watopia consists of two main islands, loosely based on the islands of Te Anu and Naunonga in the Solomon Islands. The location includes 53 individual and event only routes and over 160km of road.
While the geography of Watopia is loosely based on a pair of islands in the Pacific Ocean, many features of the location are largely fictionalized, making it the only Zwift course not modelled after a real-world location. It is the oldest available course in Zwift, and the one most often in active use on the Zwift course schedule. 1047 m (3435 ft) Watopia is a course in Zwift.
