Regatta Facility for Rowing and Canoeing in Feldmoching near Munich
Decisive factors for choosing the location of this regatta course in Oberschleißheim-Feldmoching were its proximity to Munich (7 km from the Olympic grounds) and the associated favorable transport connections, the consistently high groundwater level, the orientation of the basin axis in the prevailing wind direction, flat shoreline, and other factors. The character of the spacious, flat hedgerow and moorland landscape, as well as the branching baroque canal system of Schleißheim Palace, greatly contributed to the harmonious integration of this large sports facility – which has a length of 2230 m and a width of 140 m – into the landscape.
