His body was found near the spot where he sent final text messages to friends saying he was lost.
In a final text sent to a friend at 13.37 BST on the day of his disappearance, Mr Hall wrote that he had taken ‘a wrong turn’ on a trail.
Rescue teams found his body and used a helicopter to recover the body.
Italian police says his next-of- kin have been informed.
His friends had flown out to Italy to assist in search efforts along with his mother Sara Foster.
