Dorney Lake, Rowing and canoeing venue in Dorney, United Kingdom
The reservoir extends across 400 acres of Berkshire countryside, featuring a 2,200-meter straight course with separate areas for warm-up and training activities.
The construction of Dorney Lake commenced in 1996 and reached completion in 2006, requiring an investment of 17 million pounds to create this specialized water sports facility.
The lake functions as a central training location for Eton College rowing programs, maintaining a long tradition of British rowing excellence.
The facility maintains public access during non-event periods, offering paths for running and walking around the perimeter of the main competition lake.
During the 2012 Summer Olympics, temporary structures at Dorney Lake provided seating capacity for 20,000 spectators to watch rowing and canoe sprint events.
