A Sporting Welcome to Windsor

Just 25 miles west of the capital, the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead provides a vital gateway to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, as well as being on the doorstep of Eton Dorney Lake – the venue for the rowing, Paralympic rowing and canoe sprint events.

Countdown until the 2012 Olympic Games:

The Borough is easily accessible by the major road and rail networks and is just 15 minutes drive from London Heathrow Airport.  Windsor itself is a must visit destination with 1,000 years of history combined with contemporary shopping, fine dining and a unique royal connection.  Home to some of the UK's most well known visitor attractions including Windsor Castle, Eton College, the River Thames and Legoland as well as international sporting events such as Royal Ascot, the Royal Windsor Triathlon and the Cartier International Polo this is a destination worthy of a few days exploration.  There is a full range of accommodation to suit all requirements whether that be for a family run guest house, smart serviced apartment or a 5 star hotel on the banks of the Thames.  The Borough is the ideal base not just for enjoying the 2012 Games but also for discovering more of what the south east of England has to offer.

This website provides information relating to the rowing, Paralympic rowing and flat water canoeing events being held at Eton Dorney Lake.  Whether you are visiting the Royal Borough as a spectator, looking for help and advice on London 2012 Pre Games Training Camp facilities, seeking information and images for news stories or you represent a local business or organisation and want to find out how to get involved with the 2012 Games we hope you will find what you need.  If we have not answered your question within the information provided please feel free to contact us.
