History:

The Stóri-Boli ski jump was built in 1948 and for 50 years was one of the most important facilities of its kind in Iceland. The splendor of the Stóri-Boli ski jumping hill lasted during the 1960s and 1970s. In 1960, national championship competitions were to take place in Stóri-Boli, but because of the snowstorm they were moved to the smaller ski jump Litli-Boli. Skarphéðinn Guðmundsson, Olympian in Squaw Valley, won with two 40 m jumps. At one of the next championships in Siglufjörður, in 1970, the special guest was the Norwegian nordic combined athlete and coach Dag Jensvoll. As a pre-jumper then he achieved 63 meters, which was the longest jump in Iceland until 2024. In 1998, construction began on two large avalanche embankments nearby. In order to shape them, soil from the surrounding area was used, which resulted in the destruction of the hill. To commemorate the ski jumps, the dykes were named Stóri- and Litli-Boli.
