Emergency services in Spain say they have found the bodies of two female hikers who got caught in a snow storm while walking in a mountain area in the eastern part of the country.
The regional government of Valencia said the two women were found late Sunday in the Tinenca de Benifassa mountain area. A man who had been with the two women was rescued alive and taken to a nearby hospital.
The regional government said the three, aged between 45-50 years, had set out walking on Saturday morning but got into difficulty later in the day and rang the emergency services seeking help.
