Eiskanal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Artificial whitewater at the Eiskanal

The Eiskanal is an artificial canal feature in the city of Augsburg that was constructed as the whitewater kayaking and canoeing venue for the 1972 Summer Olympics that were hosted in Munich, Germany. The first artificial whitewater course of its kind, it has served as a prototype for numerous artificial courses since constructed, such as those in Barcelona, Spain, built for the 1992 Olympic Games; in Sydney, Australia, built for the 2000 Olympic Games; in Prague, The Czech Republic; in Bratislava, Slovakia; in Athens, Greece, built for the 2004 Olympic Games; and most recently in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Eiskanal is still considered a world-class venue, and hosts many World Cup and other international races.
