Alpine emergency
Dutch couple and their dogs rescued
The couple from the Netherlands actually just wanted to go for a leisurely hike with their two dogs on a circular trail above Fontanella on Wednesday. However, the hike turned into a horror trip - in the end, the rescue services were called out.
The couple had set off with two dogs at around 1.30 p.m. to tackle the Garlitt circular trail. However, between the Bartholomäusalpe and the Obere Gumpenalpe, the pair strayed from the hiking trail and ended up on paths that were still covered in snow.
No way forward and no way back
The pair continued to wander in a northerly direction and then ended up in steeply sloping terrain, which was also still covered in snow and ice. As it was no longer possible to continue or turn back, the two vacationers informed the police.
The Dutchmen and their two dogs were rescued from their predicament by helicopter and remained unharmed.
