Switzerland is open for leisure tourism and currently looks broadly safe and well-visited. The main traveler risks are mountain hazards, petty theft in busy places, and temporary border disruptions around Geneva tied to G7-related activity. There is no current evidence of armed conflict or nationwide instability, and tourism demand remains strong.
