How safe is Innsbruck for women?

Innsbruck is a small town with few bad spots. However patriarchy and rape culture and creeps are everywhere - I was followed and harrassed in Innsbruck as well, but nothing major. Overall pretty safe. In the city center you can walk at night without problems. My best tip: BIKE. Super safe, city is small enough to be everywhere in 30min.

Innsbruck is a small City, however this doesnt mean of course to fully trust, keep your eyes open and follow the rules when travelling alone as a woman - so enjoy this City and the surrounded mountains, beauty and nature and dtay safe

I think Innsbruck is a pretty safe place to stay, people are friendly and helpful, maybe unless you're at some certain areas, like mitterweg or the train station at night. Also we have the women's taxi every night, from 8pm to 4am, which costs 5€ and the drivers will pick you up wherever you are in Innsbruck and bring you straight to your room/apartment-door if you want to.

Innsbruck is a very safe city in the heart of the Alps. I know that because I spent my teenage years going out in the evening in Innsbruck and I never felt uncomfortable, not even in the middle of the night. In general, crime rates in Austria are extremely low and therefore it is considered a very safe country to travel.
Posted: July 2, 2024Very Safe I've never felt as safe as I do here in Innsbruck. It's a pleasant city and the people are very helpful and nice. No matter where you live, you feel safe. You get to know new people quickly

Innsbruck is a great place to stay if you like the mountains. It's incredibly expensive, therfore only 4 stars, but you can be sure, that everything you buy, eat, do is out of good quality. The coffee is tasty and people are friendly, I felt very safe. If you are in a budget, avoid Innsbruck! If not, enjoy :)

I always feel very safe in Innsbruck. I love to ski, and the city is perfect for that. What I love is that you can see the mountains all around the city. I was cycling, but I believe there is a train connection.

I only spent a day/night there but the scenery is stunning from the whole town. You can walk along the river or head to the little mall where there's a rooftop bar with 360 degree views, good day or night. I didn't catch the cable car up to the mountain top but my friend did and she loved it! Cheaper for students in the afternoon I think. I hiked a mountain looking for a spot to boulder which I didn't have time to climb in the end but it was still lovely. Splashed myself in the mountains streamz, picked wild cherries and oregano and got a lift from a local part way up the hill with my trusty thumb! Also found a great hostel, very cosy and cheap, above cafe munding, I would highly recommend.
