Is Bern Safe for Women?

Switzerland in general is pretty safe and Bern especially. Even tho it can be considered as the capital, it is very small and quiet. It gives a bit of a village vibe. As a girl I always felt very safe even alone at night, walking, using public transportation or taking an uber. As a woman no place is 100% safe but it is one of the safest place I’ve been living in.

Pretty safe, there are certain areas that i wouldn‘t visit alone at night but in general i feel pretty safe. The city center is quite small so there are always people around. But of course i always feel safer when i‘m with someone.

Bern is a very safe place. During the day, you don’t have to be afraid at all. Only at night, I would avoid the Bollwerk/Schützenmatt area. But even in the city center, it’s not really a problem at night. Sometimes, there are people asking for money, but you just need to say you don’t have any cash and they’ll leave without another word.

It is very safe especially during the day. At night it used to be safer, but you are still easily capable of walking about alone as a woman at night, though I would not recommend if you don’t have to, but that goes for everywhere :/ Compared to other places I would say very safe

Bern is a very beautiful and calm city with a very low crime rate. You'll feel save, even at night. The people are not very open to strangers, but always nice and not harassing. It's possible to go to a club alone without the fear of having something in your drink.

Group travel

I felt super safe. I stayed in my friend’s home. The city was very calm and relax. I heard the foods are not interesting so i didn’t try from a restaurant. Also you have very options about transportation. I love all the options but train is the fastest one
