Salzburg hiking couple rescued at night in Carinthia
Due to darkness and numerous crevasses, a couple of hikers from Salzburg got into difficulties on Thursday and alerted the mountain rescue service.
The route of the 68-year-old man and his 66-year-old wife from Salzburg led from Heinrich-Schwaiger-Haus to Oberwalderhütte, which belongs to the municipality of Heiligenblut in the district of Spittal/Drau.
Rescue rescued hypothermic couple
