Happy Ending Misadventure for a German Woman in IschiaShe fell into a ravine on Mount Epomeo and had to be rescued by a 118 helicopter. Yesterday afternoon, the 34-year-old, who is on vacation, had decided to go on a hike to the slopes of the highest mountain on the island, but while climbing a path, she slipped into a canal and was unable to return to the valley.
The woman, disoriented and frightened, then contacted the Carabinieri who, in order to locate her, asked her to share her position via her cell phone; in addition to the military, technicians from the local Campania Alpine and Speleological Rescue team were activated for the finding, who began to search the area indicated by the GPS.
