14 Hikers Rescued in Mallorca After Torrential Rain
Walking party trapped in the Torrent de Pareis yesterday
A group of hikers called for help yesterday from the Civil Guard as they feared they would become trapped in the Torrent de Pareis in the Tramuntana mountains.
After a sudden, powerful downpour they felt that they would be trapped in rising flood water and became frightened.
Thankfully no-one was injured and they were all taken to safety by helicopter.
