Two cyclists were rescued during a nighttime operation in the San Pietro area of Isola del Gran Sasso. The hikers, who had set out from Campo Imperatore, lost their way on the Sentiero dei Quattro Vadi and became trapped in a ravine with their bicycles.

The rescue was triggered by an emergency signal sent via the GeoResQ smartphone application. Alpine and Speleological Rescue technicians from Abruzzo reached the site after navigating through dense vegetation. The two individuals were found in good health and were safely escorted back to the road by rescuers. The operation concluded around 4:00 AM.
