Flown into the valley
After a ridge walk in distress: duo rescued by helicopter
A German duo consisting of a man (38) and a woman (25) had to be rescued by a police helicopter on Saturday in Walchsee in the Tyrolean district of Kufstein. The alpinists had got into an emergency situation.
The 38-year-old and the 25-year-old wanted to go on a hike from Durchholzen via the Winkelakar to the Pyramidenspitze in the municipality of Walchsee. "In the upper section of the marked trail, both of them strayed from the trail due to the residual snow", according to the executive.
The duo were therefore tempted to climb the Jovenspitze, which they could see.
After the ridge hike to the summit, the alpinists found themselves in an emergency situation.
