A 51-year-old mountaineer from the Hartberg-Fürstenfeld district lost his balance on Saturday morning while descending from the Hochtor in the Gesäuse and fell 100 meters. He suffered fatal injuries.
On Saturday morning, two mountaineer friends (51, 59 years old) had climbed from the Kölblwirt via the Schneeloch to the Hochtor in the Gesäuse. During the descent at around 10.45 a.m. via the Josefinensteig in the direction of the Hesshütte, the 51-year-old from the Hartberg-Fürstenfeld district lost his balance for unknown reasons and fell around 100 meters. The man suffered fatal injuries.
The body was rescued from the steep terrain by the Libelle police helicopter. The 59-year-old companion was able to descend into the valley on his own. It was not possible to determine who was to blame.
