History:
The first ski jump in Delnice was opened in 1904. A small hill, which allowed to jump over 10 meters and was one of the first in that part of Europe. It was built from wood and old building materials and opened by two local skiers Jakov Kezele and Josip Šnajdar, who were the first ones to jump from it.
The construction of a bigger ski jumping hill at Delnice in former Yugoslavia started in 1932. However, the hill at Vučnik could be opened only 3 years later due to the lack of snow during that time. In 1947, the local hero and best Croatian ski jumper of all-time Josip Šporer jumped here a hill record 36 meters. A few weeks later the hill was closed due to problems with the wooden inrun structure and then demolished.
On March 7, 1948 the new K45 hill at Japlenški Vrh was inaugurated in front of more than 2000 spectators. The famous ski jumping hill architect Stanko Bloudek, who also built the Velikanka at Planica, was responsible for the construction.
