The biggest threat in my experience are untrained dogs, mostly near tourist spots. Attacks are pretty rare, though -so far (~20 years of regular /out/) I've hookpunched one when it was going for my throat, stabbed one with a walkingstick when it was charging, and kicked two that approached apparently friendly, then suddenly tried to bit my legs (and both times, got stuck on my boots).
Also being american, apparently. In the my area (western Germany), over the last five years, here have been three american tourists getting lost and almost dying. It's hilarious, for example:
>two american women come from Ramstein and Kaiserslautern>want to hike the palatinate forest>park their car on a tourist parking lot, ~150m from the road>go for a short, 2km circular hike>woman A stumbles and injures her leg>no phone service>both return to the car the way they came (which, at that point, was 1,8km instead of 200m the other way)>Car won't start for some reason (police never stated why, my suspicion is they accidentally put it in neutral and couldn't find the clutch)>A stays in the car, B goes on foot to get help>B never reaches the village, which is literally 2km down the road, downhill all the way>three days later, hikers find the car with A in it, covered in feces and urine from being unable to get up>B still lost>cops organize a massive search, calling on every hunter or forest worker in the area>we start combing through the woods, but can't find her>returning to the parking lot, one guy hears weak voices right next to the parking lot>turns out B tried to take a shorter path to the road - cutting through a 10m depression to shorten the ~150m to ~100m, couldn't get back up the incline,walked circles, tried to build a shelter the first evening, then was to dehydrated to move.
