Team members made use of the chairlift to simulate several emergency situations. They ‘rescued’ people with the help of a helicopter, a ladder, and also repelled people down from the chairlift.
The training operation lasted for about two hours. Since Vianden is the only place in the Grand Duchy with a chairlift, the municipality requires local emergency service teams to regularly conduct training operations on site.
