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. *
