Walked around well past midnight when I was there, there were some groups of people out but it was quiet and incredibly safe. Bring an empty water bottle to fill up at the fountains and highly recommend taking a quick walking tour when you first get there to get oriented. The food was pretty good - def get a group together to go to fondue

Interlaken was incredible! I only got to go for a few hours, but I already have plans to go back. The views are unmatched and I’d recommend it over any big city in Switzerland. It was very safe and small town feel.
Posted: June 26, 2025I 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
Posted: June 24, 2025I felt completely safe, staubbach falls and trümmelbach falls are a must! I really enjoyed coffee from a small barista spot right in front of the waterfalls, i stayed at Camping Jungfrau, and i got arround walking, theres also a bus service but its worth the walk

It is a famous, touristic city, only one guy wanted my number but he didn't look like a local so I simply politely declined his request. It was the only "issue" I had during my trip, they try to approach tourists I guess too but overall everything was good and I didn't experience any inconvenience due to my solo traveling.

I tried to upload images but the app is taking forever to uplaod 20 images. I visited the Jungfrau region in in end mar - early april for 4 days. I took the jungfrau pass and tried to do as many included mountains as possible. And to say its breathtaking doesn't do justice. We stayed at gsteigwiller village at a bnb which was super cute. There is bus available every 30 mins from gsteigwiller to wilderswill or interlaken west/zentrale. The village is very scenic with beautiful mountain backdrop and very beautiful but there are no restaurants or grocery stores there. So a little bit of planning around food is necessary. Männlichen and Grindelwald First and lake Brienz were our favourite experiences. Weather was luckily fabulous and we also saw cherry blossoms

i would say zurich is very safe! ofc there‘s always places that you should not walk through at night but i think every city has these sketchy places. I‘m generally a little worried about any assault but that‘s not because of zurich but because i‘m a woman…

Switzerland is a very safe country but as a woman you always have to take care especially during the night. During the day there are not a lot of risks. In bigger cities like Zürich or Geneva you have to pay a bit more attention than in smaller cities/towns.
