The 1969 ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships were held in Bourg St.-Maurice, France under the auspices of International Canoe Federation. It was the 11th edition. The mixed C2 team event returned for the third and final time after not being held at the previous championships. East Germany, having one medals at every occasion since 1951, didn't take part because of political reasons.
Note
editOnly two teams completed the course in the women's K1 team event.
