Leukerbad is considered the safest region in the whole of Switzerland. However, the influx of tourists has forced the local authorities to increase security in Leukerbad. If you are a first-time visitor to this mountainous area, you should take sensible precautions and beware of pickpockets and purse snatchers.
In addition, travel companies, before giving you a tour to this snowy Swiss haven, recommend buying medical insurance, which will help you get qualified medical assistance if needed, including air evacuation if necessary.
It is also recommended that you purchase insurance that covers such things as lost luggage, credit cards, and other unforeseen mishaps and expenses.
