The search for missing Belgian tourist, Celine Cremer, is continuing in Waratah today, with crews focusing their efforts around the Philosopher Falls waterfall.
Inspector Anthea Maingay said police search and rescue personnel are rappelling from the viewing platform to search in the surrounding bushland and thick vegetation.
“We’re continuing our efforts to locate Celine, but as we explained yesterday we have received expert medical advice that indicates the recent weather conditions were not survivable for the length of time that Celine is thought to have been exposed in the wilderness.”
“At this stage no further signs of Celine have been located since her car was found in the Philosopher Falls car park on Tuesday.”
“Our information indicates Celine’s car has been in the car park since at least 20 June, and we believe she was only equipped for a light day walk.”
“Our thoughts remain with Celine’s family, and we are continuing our efforts to locate her in an attempt for them to have some answers at this tragic time.”
The Philosopher Falls walking track at Waratah remains closed to the public.
