A German tourist died after falling on the Monviso mountain in the northwestern Italian Alps on Thursday.
The climber in his 50s fell several dozen metres at dawn while on the Passo delle Sagnette, at an altitude of around 2,900 metres (9,500 feet).
He was travelling with his daughter and another group of people, who were evacuated by helicopter.
Since the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, the number of day-trippers to the Monviso, close to the French border, has risen, especially during the holidays and summer months.
