Zwift Celebrates 10 Years with Return to Jarvis Island

To celebrate its 10th anniversary, Zwift has returned to Jarvis Island, a mystical isle nestled off the coast of Watopia’s famous Volcano Mountain that first emerged in 2014.

However, the updated island isn’t just a trip down memory lane, as Jarvis Island has been treated to new visuals, updated routes and small nods to its original beta days, including the blue bots and even Banjo Man’s café. Moreover, the reimagined version also includes six fresh routes, each catering to a variety of riding styles and goals.

Six New Routes – Endless Riding Options

  • Deca Dash: Ten laps spanning 52.4 km of climbs and sharp turns. Pushing riders to their limit on every pedal stroke.
  • Wasted 8: An eight-lap, 30.7 km route traversing deserts and ocean views, ideal for those craving flat yet scenic rides.
  • Loopin’ Lava: A fiery 18.3 km ride around Watopia’s volcanic landscape. Designed to keep the heat on for riders seeking a demanding climbing challenge.
  • The Classic: Experience the timeless beauty of Watopia. This 8.8 km route combines elements of old and new. Showcasing Zwift’s origins and some of the most scenic roads on the island.
  • Coast to Coast: A diverse 24.1 km journey starting at the southern shore and featuring the Sasquatch Sprint. Woodland Sprint, Jarvis KOM, and Jarvis Sprint to challenge Zwifters on every stretch.
