That's how much it costs

Fascination Traunstein: This week, the mountain rescue team had to be deployed three times to the 1691-metre-high mountain. The number of visitors to the "Guardian of the Salzkammergut" is high. A 19-year-old who was out and about with broken sneakers will now probably have to pay for the rescue costs. The "Krone" knows how expensive something like this can be.

The Gmunden mountain rescue team was extremely busy this week. Within three days, they had to go out on three missions, the last of which was on Thursday afternoon.
