Morzine is super safe there is nothing to worried about and can definitely go home middle of the night with no problem. Also everyone knows everyone its a tiny village. Its a party town during seasons so there are drunk people, but we all party together, never heard about a girl being unsafe there

Personally have never had any issues walking home in the dark. Obviously always keep your wits about you. I have heard of some girls being harassed, I don't know the details, I know it's happened to more than one, but in 4 years time I have not had any bad experiences.
