The body of a 62-year-old hiker was found on Sunday afternoon in difficult terrain near Balm near Günsberg. According to police and prosecutors, he may have had a fatal accident after falling down a steep slope. There is no evidence of external influence, says Nourdin Khamsi, media spokesperson for the Solothurn cantonal police.
In recent years there have been several fatal accidents in Jura Solothurn. “There is a residual risk with every hike,” said Fabian Umbricht of the SAC. The land, the conditions play a role – but so does the person with their skills and equipment. In the Solothurn Jura there are places with a risk of falling, but also places without.
