Route Description
Route profile by ZwiftHub – the place to plan and track your route achievements!
Watopia’s “Volcano Circuit” route takes you around and through the volcanic island in a clockwise direction. To get to the circuit you must first ride ~2.6km from the spawn point, traveling through a glass bridge to arrive at the volcano. Once you arrive you will continue to be routed around the 4km circuit. A lap counter visible just after the circuit banner indicates the number of laps you have completed.
I just did the route and the lead in was only 1.3km. Completed te first lap after 5.4km.
it might depend on whether you participate in a group ride (which may take off at downtown pens) or ride solo, it looks like the start is at a different point in this case.
What does Zwift consider the road surface around the volcano? Is this gravel or tarmac (as in which bike should I use).
I guess that it’s asphalt. Because I’m averaging the same speed to power in comparison to other asphalt courses (like Flat route).
I just rode the route three times. Before I started I clicked the badge. Every time I went around I clicked the badge. No route complete?
Did you select this as your route to ride before you started riding? Or did you freely navigate your way through it?
same problem too! But I have 25 rounds and and they counted! I’m just missing the solo on it!
Same with me but you might of done the CCW
The link to the main strava segment is broken.
Fixed, thanks!
I’m still new to Zwift. I want to do 5 laps around the volcano. How do I get there and know for sure my ride is counting towards the 5-lap badge? thank you
Just choose “Volcano Circuit” OR “Volcano Circuit CCW” from the Watopia routes list, then start riding! It’ll count your laps – you’ll see them on a counter just past the lap banner.
Eric, terrific site. I use it at least 2/Week. Thanks, John
Hi there,
I have a quick question, maybe someone will answer it here…?
Is it possible to achieve the “25-Voclano-Rounds-Badge” when riding with the Robo Pacer? Because next week would be perfect opportunity for me 🙂
Best,
Adam
