Travel Agency Liable for 30% of Hiking Accident

Organizers of a 11-kilometer hiking event with a 650-meter cumulative ascent are charging participants 139 yuan. Organizers of a hiking event in China have stated that participants must pay a 139 yuan registration fee. An event organizer in China is facing a liability claim after a participant, a young woman traveling alone, became unwell and was instructed to return by herself. The event's disclaimer noted that outdoor activities are undertaken at one's own risk, with organizers only responsible for providing assistance within their capabilities. The judge pointed out that the woman's choice to return alone, despite feeling unwell, constituted a oversight in the rescue process, making the organizer liable. A tour agency has been ordered to pay 30% of damages after a young woman traveling alone became ill and was not adequately supported by the tour leader.
