In Bavaria, a family outing went spectacularly in the pants.

The vacationers had to be rescued from a forest path by the police and mountain rescue services.

  • Vacationers

    made a fatal mistake on their Sunday outing.

  • You wanted to

    visit

    an alpine pasture near Piding in

    Bavaria

    .

  • In the end, the

    police

    and

    mountain rescue services had to

    move in.

Piding - On Sunday (October 11th, 2020) a vacationing family in

the Berchtesgadener Land district made

an

emergency call

.

They had got themselves

into an emergency

on the Hochstaufen near

Piding

and were rescued by the police and the mountain rescue service.

That happened:

Vacationers from

North Rhine-Westphalia

decided on a family excursion on Sunday.

Together they should go to the easternmost mountain of the Chiemgau Alps, the

Hochstaufen

.

The walk seemed

too difficult for

the

family

, so they decided to continue by car - although it was forbidden.

Odd journey in Bavaria: vacationers make an emergency call - police and mountain rescue rush to help

The police in Bad Reichenhall announced this to dpa on Tuesday (13.10.2020).

The district of Berchtesgadener Land is located in the administrative district of Upper Bavaria, which also includes the state capital Munich * and the independent city of Ingolstadt *.

The family of five was on the way to the

Steiner Alm

in Bavaria and decided - after looking for a route on the navigation device - to

drive down

a forest road

by

car

.

However, this was closed to private vehicles.

At the beginning of the journey the car hit the gravel road, but the

emergency call

was only necessary after a technical defect in the engine.

Post: This is how the holidaymakers had imagined their Sunday excursion - unfortunately nothing came of it

Vacation in Bavaria: the family makes the wrong decision - now the father has to face the consequences

The odyssey of the

vacationers

ended after four kilometers.

The father saw no possibility of getting back and forth and made an emergency call.

The location of the family was passed on rather unclearly, which is why the

Bad Reichenhall police called in

the responsible

mountain rescue service

.

With their

help

, the emergency services were able to find the family and help them.

The

father

was encouraged to drive the car to a turning point on his own.

From there he was safely escorted into the valley by the police and mountain rescue services.

Because of the use of the forest road, which was closed to the public, the father is now

facing

legal consequences

: he is expected to be prosecuted for an

administrative offense

.

At the beginning of October 2020, two tourists had already relied too much on their

GPS

- they ended up driving their car on the Brauneck in Bavaria. *
