When it comes to public safety, Zakopane, like many Polish cities, is in a zone of relative comfort. However, the influx of tourists has not saved the resort from the perennial problems - fraud, petty thefts and other signs of tourist paradise. Going for a walk in the city, be vigilant, and you can easily avoid such unpleasant surprises.
As for safety in the mountains, the Tatra Volunteer Rescue Service protects the peace and health of tourists.
