Final footage of the Brazilian hiker who fell and became trapped inside an active volcano has been released.

Juliana Marins was part of a group that was hiking on the Indonesian island of Lombok last weekend.

The 26-year-old was near the active Mount Rinjani volcano when she fell off a 'cliff', where she was trapped for four days before her tragic death yesterday (Wednesday 25 June).

A team had tried to rescue her from the crater she was stranded in, but they could not find her once they arrived.

After succumbing to her injuries, Juliana's family took to social media to say how 'grateful' they were for people's support, and confirmed that 'she did not survive.'

Now, haunting footage of the hiker before her fall has been posted online.

Her family took to Instagram to share a video of the dancer enjoying herself at a Mount Rinjani's basecamp, taken before she fell into the crater.

The person behind the camera ironically joked that they did it 'for the view', panning across the landscape to reveal that they were surrounded by dense fog.

Juliana can be seen laughing at the joke in the video, while another video taken of the Brazilian shows her once again making fun of the fog-filled view.

It was reported by CNN that she was scaling the volcano with a guide and five other foreigners before the incident.

Juliana fell over 1000 ft into the crater according to local authorities, while the news broadcaster revealed that other tourists used a drone to locate her after the fall.

It's believed that the 26-year-old had been travelling across Asia since February.

Following her death, the Marins family released a statement, which read in full: "Today, the rescue team managed to reach the place where Juliana Marins was.

"With great sadness, we inform you that she did not survive.

"We remain very grateful for all the prayers, messages of affection and support that we have received."

Brazilian former minister Tereza Critsina also spoke about the news, writing on X: "The entire Brazil [sic] cheered and prayed that the rescue would arrive in time to save the young woman from Niterói, Juliana Marins, alive.

"Unfortunately, they could not save her. Very sad. Our condolences to her family and friends.

"And may the Brazilian government, through Itamaraty, demand an investigation of the facts and the punishment of those responsible in Indonesia. In practice, Juliana was left behind twice: on the dangerous trail and after she fell off the cliff."
