Three foreign tourists and a high-altitude Nepali worker have been rescued from the Manaslu region of northern Gorkha.

According to the District Police Office in Gorkha, two Danish nationals, an Australian tourist and a porter from Dhading were rescued on Sunday.

A Danish tourist complained of breathing difficulties apparently caused due to altitude sickness while the Australian tourist sustained injuries after a fall on the trail, said police.

An Air Dynasty helicopter flew them to Kathmandu for treatment.
