Styrian Woman Dead After Fall at Loser

A 50-year-old woman from Graz died on Wednesday evening after a fall at Loser. A hiker discovered the woman on Thursday morning, the police announced in the evening. There are no indications of third-party negligence. The woman had undertaken the hike in the Loser area alone and subsequently climbed the route known as the "Sissi" panoramic via ferrata twice. During the second ascent, around 8:45 PM, she fell approximately 200 meters.

Hiker Came Across the Victim

According to initial investigations, the woman was no longer secured to the steel cable at the time of the fall due to the flatter terrain. On Thursday morning, an uninvolved hiker discovered the victim and alerted the rescue services. The recovery of the body was subsequently carried out by the crew of a police helicopter, according to the authorities.
