Segre Olympic Park

Parc Olímpic del Segre is a canoeing and kayaking facility in La Seu d'Urgell, Catalonia, Spain, built in 1990 for use during the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona.

The natural flow of the Segre River is diverted through the course by a diversion dam upstream.

When the course is not being used, or when the natural flow exceeds 17.5 m3/s, the pumps are reversed and run in turbine mode to generate electricity for the town.

The park also has a 650-m long feedwater canal which carries water from the river into the whitewater course.

[3] The ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships have been held at the venue three times: 1999, 2009 and 2019.
