JAKARTA: A Swedish tourist was killed Wednesday
when he fell 150 metres (490 feet) into the crater of Mount Batur,
an active volcano on the Indonesian tourist island of Bali, police
said.
The 25-year-old man slipped as he tried to peer into the crater
after a dawn trek to the summit, which climbs to 1,700 metres
(5,600 feet) on the northeastern side of the island, police
said.
“He was looking into the crater, slipped and fell 150 metres,”
local police chief Made Oka told AFP.
He said emergency responders were at the scene and were trying
recover the tourist’s body using ropes. Police were unable to
provide the man’s name.
Mount Batur is easy to climb compared to some other volcanoes in
Indonesia and has become popular with day-trippers on Bali. --
