During forestry work in the municipality of Techelsberg am Wörthersee, a hiker was hit by a fallen tree on Saturday afternoon. The woman suddenly appeared in the forest.
The two men (34 and 35 years old) were felling a 25-meter-high pine tree around 1:40 PM and had made the final cuts in the felling area. They had looked around beforehand to make sure there were no people or possible dangers.
Woman ran towards the fall
But when the tree fell, a woman suddenly emerged from a group of trees. The two men shouted to the 79-year-old that the tree was falling, prompting the woman to run a few meters towards the fall. She was hit by a pine branch and seriously injured. The two men immediately provided first aid and called the emergency services. After initial medical treatment, the 79-year-old was flown to the Klagenfurt clinic by the C11 rescue helicopter. The Töschling fire brigade supported the rescue operation with 18 people.
