Just outside of London in Hertfordshire is the Lee Valley White Water Centre. This was the venue for canoeing events at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Although this was an Olympic Venue, enthusiasts of all abilities can participate in activities such as group white water rafting. Modelled on slalom skiing, the first canoe slalom events were included at the 1992 Olympics, held in Barcelona. The Olympic Standard Competition course requires 13,000 litres of water to be pumped every second. This is enough to fill a 25 metre swimming pool in 30 seconds. This creates fast and thrilling rapids, perfect conditions to challenge the competitors at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games Live broadcast Unravel Travel TV http://www.unraveltraveltv.com Unravel Travel TV Twitter http://www.twitter.com/UnravelTravelTV Unravel Travel TV on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/UnravelTravelTV Unravel Travel TV http://www.unraveltravel.eu
