The survey is in the Tauplitz cadastral area , which has been part of Bad Mitterndorf since 2015.
The Kulm, the largest natural ski jump in the world, is located on the northern slope of the Kulmkogel . The first jumping competition took place in 1950, world championships in 1975 , 1986 , 1996 , 2006 and 2016 .
