The ski jump in Planica is one of the world’s largest and most modern ski-jumping hills. It symbolises Slovenian sports and places where many ski jumping records have been set over the years. The hill was first constructed in 1934 and since then has undergone several renovations and expansions, including the construction of a new hill in 2015, which is now the giant ski jumping hill in the world.

The hill has a unique profile, with a steep takeoff, a long flat section, and a steep landing. It is designed to allow jumpers to achieve great distances, and many ski jumping records have been set here, including the first jump over 100 meters in 1936 and the current world record of 253.5 meters set by Stefan Kraft of Austria in 2017.

It is also known for its annual ski jumping events, including the Ski Jumping World Cup Finals and the Ski Flying World Championships, attracting thousands of spectators worldwide. The atmosphere during these events is electric and a must-visit destination for anyone who loves winter sports and the thrill of ski jumping.
