Mountain rescuers alerted
Hiker (18) lost his way in the Tennengebirge mountains
A German man (18) living in Salzburg hiked from Pfarrwerfen via the Thron Valley to the Edelweißhütte on Tuesday. From there he continued through open terrain and strayed from a path. As darkness fell, he called his girlfriend, who subsequently raised the alarm.
The 18-year-old was unable to continue due to the difficult and rocky terrain. As the coordinates were known, the 18-year-old was quickly located by the crew of a police helicopter. At around 10.45 pm, an emergency helicopter reached the young climber's location and was able to bring him safely down to the valley using a cable winch, according to the police report.
A total of eleven mountain rescuers from Werfen, an alpine police officer and two helicopters were deployed.
