History:
The Zelený vrch ski jumping hill was located on a wooded hill north of the town, in the area of today’s forest recreation park with the miniature village “Mlýnky-Brand”. It was a complex of two jumps built in 1962, now completely destroyed – the site is overgrown with forest, and only faint traces in the terrain reveal the former inrun and landing slope.
Ski jumping traditions in Česká Kamenice began a few years earlier on another hill – Lompeják. The first ski jump in the town was built in 1954 as a K40 hill. Its construction was primarily initiated by Jaroslav Egermajer, mentioned in sources as the main figure behind the building and operation of the facility. However, only three competitions were held there, after which the hill ceased to play a significant sporting role. Experiences with the Lompeják hill and the limited possibilities for its further development became the impulse to look for a more suitable location – and consequently to build a new hill on Zelený vrch, on the opposite side of Česká Kamenice.
The project was designed by Miloslav Bělonožník, a well-known Czechoslovak ski jumper, Olympian in St. Moritz (1948), later coach and engineer who specialized in designing ski jumps after ending his career. He was the first Czechoslovak ski jumper to clear the 100-metre mark – in 1955 in Oberstdorf he jumped 102 and 107 metres, the latter being described in contemporary sources as an unofficial world record, even though the recognised world record at the time was Tauno Luiro’s 139-metre jump from 1951.
According to sources, six competitions were held on the new Zelený vrch hill between 1962 and 1967. Everything indicates that these were local or regional events – organized for jumpers from northern Bohemia, without national or international status. After 1967, no further mentions of competitions at Zelený vrch appear in records. The hill seems to have gradually fallen out of use and was later dismantled or left to natural decay.
Although no visible structures of the ski jump remain, the site today serves as a local landmark and a destination for short walks.
