The '''Four Hills Tournament''' ({{lang-de|link=no|Vierschanzentournee}}) or the '''German-Austrian Ski Jumping Week''' ({{lang-de|link=no|Deutsch-Österreichische Skisprung-Woche}}) is a [[ski jumping]] event composed of four [[Ski Jumping World Cup|World Cup]] events and has taken place in [[Germany]] and [[Austria]] each year since 1953. With few exceptions, it has consisted of the [[ski jumping]] events held at [[Oberstdorf]], [[Garmisch-Partenkirchen]], [[Innsbruck]] and [[Bischofshofen]], in this order.
 
The Four Hills Tournament champion is the one who gets the most points over the four events. Unlike the World Cup ranking, however, the actual points scored during the competitions are the ones that are used to determine the winner. In 2005–06, [[Janne Ahonen]] and [[Jakub Janda]] shared the overall victory after finishing with exactly the same points total after the four competitions. In 2001–02, the anniversary 50th edition, [[Sven Hannawald]] was the first to achieve the ''grand slam'' of ski jumping, winning all four events in the same edition. In 2017–18 season [[Kamil Stoch]] became the second ski jumper in history to obtain this achievement, and just a year later, in the 2018–19 edition, [[Ryoyu Kobayashi|Ryōyū Kobayashi]] became the third.
 
The four individual events themselves are part of the World Cup and award points toward the world cup in exactly the same manner as all other world cup events.

==Notable participants==
In 1965, the Polish jumper, [[Stanisław Marusarz]] (silver medal in World Championship, 1938 in Lahti) who was visiting the tournament, asked the jury in Garmisch-Partenkirchen to allow him a showcase jump. After a long debate, the jury agreed. Marusarz, who at this time was 53 years old (and not practicing jumping for 9nine years) achieved 66 meters, using borrowed skies and boots and making his jump in an official suit (in which he attended the New Years Party), which made the crowd applaud.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.sport.pl/skoki/1,65079,13075218,Skoki_narciarskie__Turniej_Czterech_Skoczni__Marusarz.html#BoxSportTxt|title = Skoki narciarskie.
