Man rescued at Falls Creek camping ground

Emergency services conducted a rescue operation for a camper “in distress” at Falls Creek on Tuesday afternoon.

A Victoria Police spokesperson said personnel responded to a 54-year-old in distress at Edmonsons Hut in Falls Creek about 2:10pm.

He was rescued by local ground crews after requiring medical treatment and was transported to a medical centre for assessment.

Edmonson Hut is a popular camping area at Falls Creek.

The rescue comes just days after the bodies of two female hikers were discovered at an isolated hiking area near Mount Bogong.

Police have said the deaths of the women, believed to be in their 20s to 30s, appear to be non-suspicious.
