In late August and early September 2026, Italian emergency services managed a high volume of environmental and mountain-related risks. Alpine rescue operations remained frequent, particularly in the Dolomites, involving the rescue of a lost couple near Settsass, a German climber near the Falzarego Towers, and medical assistance for tourists at Rifugio Vazzoler, Sorapis, and Rifugio Auronzo. Mountain rescue activity intensified in early September. On September 4, technicians in Val di Mello assisted an immobilized hiker and a woman requiring stretcher transport. On September 5, high-intensity operations in the Dolomites included the airlift of a Swedish tourist, assistance for a Singaporean national, and the rescue of an Austrian woman following a mountain biking accident. At Cima Grande di Lavaredo, two separate groups of climbers were rescued due to freezing temperatures and inadequate equipment. Regional activity expanded beyond the Dolomites during this period. In the Gran Sasso, a hiker was airlifted for severe knee pain, while in the Rieti province, rescuers responded to a mushroom hunter who fell 50 meters and a motorcyclist with a broken limb. In Campania, three hikers were located near Montella using SMS Locator technology. Other interventions included technical rescues on a via ferrata in Como and the recovery of a man from a ravine in Rimella using drones and specialized rope techniques. Emergency services also performed aerial recoveries of livestock, including a cow in Valsessera and another in Firenzuola, which required helicopter assistance and veterinary sedation. By September 5, reports indicated a surge in mountain activity across the Dolomites, Gran Sasso, and the Alps. Additional incidents included a 20-meter fall on Monte Terminillo and a bovine rescued from a crevasse in Pontechianale.
