Tourist who fell off active volcano in Indonesia found dead after 4-day search

Juliana Marins, a 26-year-old Brazilian tourist, was climbing Mount Rinjani with a group and a tour guide when she slipped and fell off a cliff on the side of the mountain.

A Brazilian tourist who fell hundreds of feet near an active volcano in Indonesia has been found dead after a four-day search and rescue effort.

Juliana Marins, 26, was climbing Mount Rinjani with a group led by a tour guide when she slipped and fell off a cliff on the side of the mountain near Indonesia’s second-highest volcano on June 21.

Indonesian rescue workers were finally able to reach Marins’ body on June 24, according to the BBC.

“With great sadness, we inform you that she did not survive,” Marins’ family said in a statement on social media. “We remain very grateful for all the prayers, messages of affection and support that we have received.”

Brazil’s government also confirmed that Marins was found dead, following days of rescue efforts that were hampered by challenging weather conditions.

“After four days of work, hindered by adverse weather, terrain and visibility conditions in the region, teams from Indonesia’s Search and Rescue Agency found the body of the Brazilian tourist,” it said in a statement, according to Reuters.

Indonesian authorities said Monday that Marins was on the mountain and had fallen about 1,600 feet. She appeared motionless, according to drone footage.

Marins’ sister, Marianna, told Brazilian outlet Fantástico that her sister was abandoned by her tour guide on the trail more than an hour before she fell.
