History:

Not far from Munich, about 20 km south at the B11, is the small town Icking. There the WSV Isartal was founded in 1925 and built in 1926/27 the first ski jumping hill. A main supporter of this project was Carl L. Luther from Munich, a skiing trainer, ski historian, ski jump builder and later FIS ski jumping hill consultant.
The Icking jump was a natural ski hill and widths of up to 30 m were possible, later a smaller 20 meter hill for the youth was built beside it. From 1928 to 1940 many diverse sport events took place there, which were accompanied by many interested participants and spectators from the Bavarian state capitol. With the rise of ski tourism the hotel sector and the local railway system in the Isar valley developed and was improved.
As everywhere club life was down during the war, but in 1947 the construction of a new larger K36 ski jumping hill was started in common work with the ski section of the TSV 1860 Munich. With the Munich Nordic Ski Championships the facility was opened successfully in 1949. With the help of a fuel energy machine in the 1950’s also night competitions under floodlight were made in front of a large attendance.
In 1972 there was the last official competition on the jump – the hill record was held by Tim Ackermann from Munich-Parsing with 43 m. Today there is only existing the dilapidated judges tower on the area and the concrete inrun of the 1960’s and the old takeoff remind of the past time of ski jumping at Icking.
