Is Freiburg im Breisgau safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

I felt very welcomed by the sister that hosted me, that became a friend. I loved the forest all around and that is very accessible with public transportation. I really had great time. The market around the cathedral is lovely and you can find local interesting products. There is awareness about gluten free needs in most places I have had food and I found people lovely, relaxed and friendly.

I’ve been living there for more than eight years, and I usually feel very safe during daytime and at night it’s pretty easy as well. You can rent bikes which i prefer during nighttime for transport, but taking the tram should be alright as well.

Freiburg im Breisgau, located in the South of Germany, is generally a very safe city. during the day, I feel safe walking everywhere, during night it's perfectly possible to walk home alone, if you stick to the streets with light (almost every street has street lights)

Freiburg is one of the safest places I know. Creepy people are everywhere, but here is a lot of alternative, left and conscious and very aware people. You could ask people to support you everywhere. On parties or alternative places you most of the time have an awareness team.

Personally I never experienced any problems with harassment in Freiburg. Even walking home late at night or taking public transport late at night never felt like a problem. As a woman I am maybe a bit more careful but Freiburg always felt like one of the safer cities to me, especially because of the large group of students living there.

Freiburg is a young and safe City. You can easily Walk at nighttime. Therme is only one aria to avoid in the dark: Dreisam. Its a River through Freiburg and many rapes happened there in the nighttime. Public transportation is safe, except of some weird people Talking to you, but they wouldn‘t touch you.
