# Mountain rescue activity in the Pyrenees > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/mountain-rescue-activity-in-the-pyrenees > Updated: 2026-08-04T11:52:44.000Z. Sources: 6. Developments: 2. In early August 2026, Spain’s mountain rescue agencies reported that nearly half of the 865 people they assisted in the Aragonese Pyrenees were evacuated without any physical injury. The 2025 annual report highlighted that most rescues occurred on clear days and during descents, with fatigue, dehydration, panic and disorientation as the main causes. Hiking accounted for almost half of all interventions, and specific incidents in León and the Picos de Europa involved rock‑falls, ankle injuries and a bicycle‑related clavicle fracture, all evacuated by helicopter or ambulance. The following day, fire and rescue crews dealt with severe weather in the Pyrenees. In Alins, Spain, they evacuated two scout camps—one with 68 children and 20 monitors, another with 46 children and monitors—after heavy storms threatened flooding. In Andorra, teams rescued seven tourists, including five young hikers, from a storm‑hit trail, and later assisted two hikers near Casamanya. No injuries were reported. Both events underscored the challenges of coordinating emergency capacity during sudden mountain storms and the importance of weather monitoring for outdoor activities. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-04: Firefighters rescue storm‑hit groups in the Pyrenees Firefighters evacuated scout camps in Alins, Spain, and rescued tourists on Andorra’s Pessons trail after severe Pyrenees storms, with no injuries reported. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/firefighters-rescue-stormhit-groups-in-the-pyrenees ### 2026-08-03: Spain's Mountain Rescue Services Report High Rate of Uninjured Evacuations Spain's mountain rescue agencies report that nearly half of 2025 evacuations in the Aragonese Pyrenees involved uninjured hikers, while four separate rescues occurred in July‑August in León and the Picos de Eu 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/spains-mountain-rescue-services-report-high-rate-of-uninjured-evacuations --- Cite as: Mountain rescue activity in the Pyrenees.
