Because a walker suddenly felt strong chest pain in the notch near St. Oswald, Bad Kleinkirchheim, he put the emergency call. And in a climbing wall at Lake Millstatt, the heat added two climbers.
Where thousands of skiers wave down in the winter, a hiking trail runs between Wiesernock and Spitzeck in St. Oswald, Bad Kleinkirchheim in the summer. There was a 45-year-old walker there on Thursday morning. “At an altitude of about 1,640 meters, the man suddenly felt serious chest pain and he inquired his wife by telephone,” the police report.
The woman immediately started the rescue chain, but the exact location of the man was initially unknown. “The State Control Center Carinthia ensured that a mobile phone could determine the exact location,” the police said. The crew of the rescue helicopter C11 was able to quickly find the man on a forest road.
There the emergency doctor was only trapped in the steep terrain and after the first aid the patient was finally recovered with the rope of a height of 30 meters. Then the helicopter brought him to the Klagenfurt clinic.
Exhaustion in the afternoon heat
A few hours later, around 2 p.m., two climbing (59 and 61 years) were on the wide wall near Döbriach on Lake Millstatt. But then she left the power and could no longer climb. “A rescue of the Mountain Rescue was not possible because of the local circumstances,” the police explain. “For this reason, the two women were restored from the wall by means of a police helicopter Libelle.” They remain unharmed.
