A 20-year-old female, who was injured after a fall, had to be rescued yesterday afternoon (Sunday) from the Masca Valley, in the municipality of Buenavista del Norte, in Tenerife, as reported by the Emergency Services Coordination Centre (CECOES).
CECOES received a call for help at around 3:20pm, requesting medical assistance for a young hiker who had injured a leg after suffering a fall on the Masca trail and couldn’t continue walking.
The fire brigade managed to reach the woman on foot, and after immobilizing her on a stretcher, the crew from the GES helicopter hoisted her onto the aircraft and airlifted her to the La Guancha helipad in Santa Cruz.
Once on the ground, SUC personnel assisted her and then took her to the Hospital del Norte by ambulance for further treatment.
