A woman who dropped her phone between two large boulders and later got stuck herself while trying to fetch it has been rescued. The horrific situation unfolded in the Hunter Valley, a bushland area in the New South Wales wine region, Nine News reported.

The woman, in an effort to retrieve her phone from the rocky chasm, slipped and got stuck between the boulders down a three-metre crevice. The region has limited phone reception and her friends tried to rescue her for over an hour. However, when they failed to, they called Triple Zero for help.

Ambulances arrived at the scene and the paramedics found her stuck in the crevice between the heavy rocks. Another specialised team was called in to remove the rocks. One of them weighed a whopping 500kg which was successfully hauled by the experts to safely create an area for her to escape.

The rescue operation was complicated since the woman was stuck in a tight 'S' bend. Photos shared by NSW Ambulance on Facebook showed only her feet while she was wedged inside the hole. Her shoes can be seen in a position above her.

NSW Ambulance Specialist Rescue Paramedic Peter Watts termed the operation nothing like he had ever seen before.

"In my 10 years as a rescue paramedic I had never encountered a job quite like this, it was challenging but incredibly rewarding," he said.

"Every agency had a role, and we all worked incredibly well together to achieve a good outcome for the patient."

The operation took a total of seven hours before the woman was rescued safely. However, she had to leave without her phone.

<h2>Hunter Valley, the popular wine region in Australia</h2>

Known as the "Wine Country", Hunter Valley lies north of Sydney and is a popular tourist destination in Australia. It dates back to the early 1800s and is known for the Semillon and Shiraz varieties of wine. It is home to several internationally-known brands, besides family-run boutique operations.&nbsp;

It is also where Thoroughbred horses and the best racehorses are bred and reared in Australia.
