Waldbrand alarm in Wörgl: campfire causes excitement at the fire brigade!
The fire brigade Wörgl was called to a supposed forest fire in the Upper Aubachweg at midnight on Sunday night. The site was not far from a playground, which made the situation particularly worrying. According to Krone the alarm was quick, but it quickly turned out on site that no forest fire was to be reported.
However, the emergency services perceived the smell of fire and went in search of the cause. The firefighters finally discovered two people and a campfire in the forest about 200 meters upstream. This uncontrolled fire was responsible for the audible smell of fire and the smoke development. The fire brigade immediately extinguished the campfire to avoid major damage. The two night owls were then escorted to the emergency vehicles where the police were already waiting for them.

forest fires are not just a local problem. Germany has been running extensive statistics on forest fires since the 1970s, which includes data on area sizes, causes and losses. This information is crucial to create forecasts about future risks and take measures to avoid such fires, as reported. The importance of forest protection is increasing, especially in densely populated regions. Careful planning and protective measures are necessary to obtain the valuable forest areas.
The situation in Wörgl shows once again how quickly a harmless campfire can become a serious danger. Incidentally, great emphasis is placed in Austria and especially in Tyrol on the protection of the forests, which is reflected in numerous initiatives and educational campaigns. These should not only sensitize the population, but also help to minimize the risk of forest fires.
For the emergency services, the use at night was further proof of the importance of their work. They are always ready to ward off dangers and ensure the security of the citizens. A big thank you to the fire brigade and the police for their tireless efforts!
In this sense,we can hope that all forest visitors will have a good hand in the future and treat nature respectfully. Because everyone can make a contribution to protect the valuable green.
