Police and a rescue helicopter were deployed after a man fell down a bank and activated his personal locator beacon whilst in the Kaweka Forest Park on Monday morning.
Emergency services were alerted to the activation about 11.50am.
A Police spokeswoman said the man managed to get himself out andis not injured.
She said the helicopter landed to assess the situation.
A 60-year-old woman and her partner were rescued last month following the activation of a personal locator beacon after the woman fell and hurt her leg while trout fishing on the Ngaruroro River.
