A western suburb of Lucerne sitting at the foot of Mount Pilatus, Kriens has a walkable centre with cafés and restaurants, vineyards nearby, and scenic viewpoints within easy reach. The wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites, and the town borders Lucerne directly to the east, making it a practical base for exploring both the city and the surrounding Alpine landscape.
