Vlček bzw. Vlčí kámen (ger. Wolfstein) is a 883 meter high hill near Prameny (ger. Sangerberg) in Karlovy Vary region. Already in 1911 Leonhard Sabathil opened a guesthouse there and founded the winter sports club, since also a sliding trail and a 15 meter ski jump were set up.
With the Olympic Winter Games at Garmisch-Partenkirchen in 1936, ski jumping rapidly gained popularity and thus the ski jumping hill was enlarged.
Guesthouse and ski jump had only been in use until World War II; in 1966 Vlčí kámen became a nature reserve.
