Hamrinsberget, Mountain summit in Umeå, Sweden

Hamrinsberget is a mountain summit near Umeå that rises above the surrounding landscape and offers expansive views across the Västerbotten region. From the top, you can see forests and the terrain spreading across the area in multiple directions.

In 1898 a 750-cubic-metre water reservoir was built on Hamrinsberget to supply Umeå, fed from Nydalasjön until poor quality led the city to switch to a well at Piparbölesjön in 1913. A ski jumping hill was inaugurated on 13 February 1930, with a 30-metre drop and an 88-metre landing slope of 35 metres; it hosted the Swedish championships in 1931 and 1941 and was demolished in the early 1950s.

The name comes from Johan Olof Hamrin (1828–1886), a kronofogde (bailiff) who owned a farm nearby; before that the hill was called Stora Öberget and belonged to Ön village. Next to the ski jump stood Solliden, an event site run by IFK Umeå from the 1920s to the 1960s.

The summit, 42 metres above sea level, lies between the Berghem district and Norrlands universitetssjukhus, within walking distance of both. A grill site is set up at the top, and the view over the city and the Umeälven river is best from the open western side.

The ski jump inaugurated on 13 February 1930 had a tower with a 30-metre drop and an 88-metre landing slope with a 35-metre drop. It hosted the Swedish ski championships in 1931 and 1941, but was too small to compete with larger facilities and was demolished in the early 1950s.
