A man and a woman from southern Tasmania have been helped to safety after their four-wheel drive became stuck on a remote track south of Queenstown on the state's west coast.
"The man and woman told police they had been driving for several hours and became disoriented on the tracks, eventually becoming stuck on a very difficult section which they were unable to pass," Tasmania Police said in a statement.
Police said they were told one of the two people had a physical disability, which meant they could not walk without assistance.
Police from Queenstown and Rosebery set off about 5:30pm yesterday, finding them about 7:45pm last night.
