Two hikers from Hungary got lost on Sunday as the weather turned bad while they were at an altitude of 1,700 metres in the Alps, north of the capital Ljubljana.
Slovenia’s mountain rescuers have found the body of a Hungarian hiker who got lost in a blizzard in the Alps last week.
A Facebook post said that a team located the body of the man in a gorge and that he was showing no signs of life.
Rescuers descended into the gorge using ropes after a Slovenian police helicopter first flew them near the site.
“We located the hiker 250m lower from the spot of the accident, more than two meters under the snow,” the rescue service said.
Two hikers from Hungary got lost on Sunday as the weather turned bad while they were at an altitude of around 1,700 metres in the Alps, north of the capital Ljubljana.
Slovenian rescuers for days were unable to fly a helicopter in the area because of strong winds.
The female Hungarian hiker was found and transferred to safety on Monday but rescuers had to pull back without locating the man who had a broken leg.
The snowstorm also left tens of thousands without electricity throughout the Balkans, closing down schools and snarling traffic in Croatia, Bosnia and Serbia.
Slovenia is known for mountaineering and hiking in the Alps.
