A woman from Britain died in Spain after falling 500ft while rock climbing.
According to a survivor, a tragic accident occurred while she was out hiking with a friend. This British woman, in her 20s, had traveled to Málaga, Spain to indulge in her passion for rock climbing. Unfortunately, while exploring a popular climbing spot on Friday evening, the two friends lost their footing and fell approximately 500ft. Emergency services were quickly called, but the woman could not be saved and was pronounced dead upon their arrival at 7.10pm.

Her friend, however, managed to narrowly escape the same fate by clinging onto a bush that was growing out from one of the rocks. He was found in a state of severe shock, unable to even recall his own name. The pair had been enjoying a day of hiking near the charming village of El Chorro, which is known for its incredible limestone crags that attract rock climbers from all over the world. As they were making their way back home, tragedy struck.

Many have described this particular area as an "amusement park" for rock climbers, as there are thousands of paths to explore along the limestone crags. The two mountaineers, who were in the Swiss Sector of the Arabic Staircase, had decided to call it a day and head back. However, they took a wrong turn and became lost, leading to their fatal fall. The survivor has shared that they were both on their way down the ravine when they lost their balance and plummeted.

Authorities have confirmed that the woman was British, but her identity has not yet been revealed. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has been contacted for any further updates. This tragic accident serves as a reminder of the dangers that come with pursuing thrilling activities such as rock climbing. Our thoughts and condolences go out to the friends and family of the victim during this difficult time.
