The legendary Eton Dorney – as Dorney Lake was known during London 2012 – held 30 events throughout the Olympics, with Team GB taking a total of 12 medals. Soak up the atmosphere and invoke their heroics to inspire you to a new PB!
The Dorney Lake course is nestled amongst 450 acres of glorious parkland – including an Arboretum and Nature Conservation area – whilst being just a few miles from Windsor and a short drive from Heathrow airport and West London.
