        • The canal was built in 1972–1973 for the 63rd European Rowing Championships.
        • The canal is 2.3 km long, 125 m wide and 3.5 m deep; a return canal runs parallel so rowers do not interfere with races.
        • At the 1980 Olympics, medals in rowing and in canoe and kayak sprint were contested here.
        • The 3,400-seat grandstand with an 18-meter canopy almost balances itself and is angled toward the course at 8°.
        • The water level in the canal is 4 meters above the Moskva River, so a separate water intake was built for it.
        • In 2014 the canal hosted the Canoe Sprint World Championships.
