Curious incident

Automatically saved draft

The Tyrolean cross-country skiing stronghold of Seefeld is currently very busy. On Saturday, however, cross-country skiers were amazed when a car came towards them on their track. A US-American was at the wheel. He caused quite a stir with his action. 

It was just before noon: cross-country skiers on the Wildmoos See trail couldn't believe their eyes when a car suddenly came towards them in the middle of the freshly groomed trail. The American (53) had already been on the trail for more than half a kilometer when he realized his mistake. His sat nav had directed him onto a forest road towards Lottensee. The holidaymaker then took a wrong turn there.

Rescued with snow groomers
When the American saw the cross-country skiers, he tried to get out of the way. In doing so, he got caught in the fresh snow and got stuck with his vehicle. Winter sports enthusiasts alerted the police. They had to call municipal workers with a snow groomer to recover the car. The rescue operation and the restoration of the cross-country ski track took two and a half hours.
