i would say it’s fairly safe. of course i feel unsafe walking at night, especially as a woman, because there are looks and also sometimes catcalls but i’ve never had anything really bad happen to me, it’s just a fear i have cause i’ve heard stories. i would recommend it to solo travelling girls and women, but maybe stay away from some places like train stations or lonely spots after dark, just to be safe.

If you walked alone near by the main train station. Be careful there would be someone follow behind you. Maybe they want to steal something from you or get money. Don’t use cellphone when you walk on the street although you just want to use map.
Posted: July 22, 2025Munich is generally safe, even at night or on public transport. Of course, like anywhere, it’s smart to follow basic safety habits - especially for example during Oktoberfest. But overall, you can really feel at ease here.

Munich is generally pretty safe The usual sketchy areas are: Stachus, central station and Sendlinger Tor But as long as you mind your own business and don't interact with or stare at the sketchy people there you shouldn't have any problems. But even at night I always felt safe getting home but you always have to be cautious of course!
Posted: July 6, 2025The area around the main station is (as in many cities) to be avoid during night. In the center I always feel safe walking alone at night. The metro is mostly so full in late evening/night that it's also no problem haha. During the day I never felt unsafe anywhere in munich!

That is the first time I was in foreign country alone. My hotel was near by the main train station. When I went out from the hotel. There was someone follow behind me. So be careful and be safe if you are alone.
