In a tragic incident, a 62-year-old German hiker lost his life while trekking in the Italian Dolomites. The incident occurred near the town of Cortina d'Ampezzo in the region of the Dolomites on August 26, 2025.
The hiker fell approximately 80 meters off a high trail in the Bosconero group, south of Cortina d'Ampezzo. This mountainous region is home to multiple peaks that exceed 2,000 meters in height, with the highest being the Sasso de Bosconero, which stands at 2,468 meters.
The rescue team was alerted in the afternoon by the hiker's companion, also a German. The exact circumstances of the incident are still under investigation.
Sadly, the authorities have not yet released the age or origin of the deceased. The region where the incident occurred will host the Winter Olympics next year, drawing attention to the area's breathtaking beauty and the potential risks it poses.
Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the deceased during this difficult time. The incident serves as a reminder to always prioritise safety when enjoying the great outdoors.
