For the
Summer Olympics there are 26
venues that have been or will be used in
canoeing. Initially set for
canoe sprint (flatwater racing until November 2008),
canoe slalom (slalom racing until November 2008) was first added at the
1972 Summer Olympics in
Munich. Dropped after those games, canoe slalom was reinstituted at the
1992 Summer Olympics in
Barcelona. Usually, the
rowing events have been held in the same venues as canoe sprint, the exceptions being 1952, 1964 and 1992.
