Kaltenleutgeben is located at the gates of Vienna in the Vienna Woods and was an early winter sports area. Already in 1890, the journeyman baker Wilhelm Bismark Samson from Norway jumped on a self-built 15-meter ski jump on the forest meadow in the Kreuzbergsattel. Around 1910, there was the ski jump at Gaisbergwiese.
The ski instructor Leopold Pribitzer built the ski jump in Kerschgraben in 1925. The first test jumps were carried out there in January 1926, with distances of up to 25 meters being achieved. In the same year, the ski jump was further improved and enlarged by the "Austrian Ski Club" (OeSV) from Vienna to allow jumps of up to 35 meters. There were a total of three hills for children, juniors, and seniors. In 1930, the Pribitzer ski jump was slightly enlarged again. With the construction of the larger ski jumps in Hadersdorf-Weidlingau in 1932 and 1936, the OeSV's competition activities shifted.
In 1955 and 1956, the Kaltenleutgeben Ski Club organized two large ski jumping events on the reconstructed ski jump in Kerschgraben. On March 13, 1955, Sepp Bradl won with a 48-meter jump. The Austrian national team was also a guest at the competitions on February 25th and 26th, 1956. Federal Chancellor Julius Raab was among the allegedly up to 20,000 spectators at the time.
In 2008, there were rumors that a ski arena suitable for the World Cup with a large hill and a slalom slope would be built in Kaltenleutmachen. However, these plans were never specified.
