Make the Most of Your Kriens Stay

Gateway to alpine adventure

Kriens is the essential starting point for Mount Pilatus, where panoramic gondolas lift you from the valley floor to 2,132 meters above sea level. The mountain's legendary status—once believed to harbor dragons and the ghost of Pontius Pilate—now draws visitors to hiking trails, the Dragon Ride cable car with floor-to-ceiling windows, and the historic Hotel Pilatus-Kulm. Back in town, the Museum im Bellpark occupies the 1911 Villa Florida, showcasing contemporary Swiss photography within protected Neoclassical architecture, while the Baroque pilgrimage church at Hergiswald features Switzerland's largest painted wooden ceiling with 324 panels.

Modern infrastructure meets tradition

The Mattenhof district represents Kriens' contemporary evolution, where modern high-rises and business hotels serve corporate travelers with direct S-Bahn connections to Lucerne in 4 minutes and Zurich in under an hour. The PILATUS ARENA hosts events for up to 4,000 attendees. For a different perspective, ride the vintage 1902 Sonnenbergbahn funicular to the "Little Sun Mountain," where Hotel-Restaurant Sonnenberg offers 14 GaultMillau-point dining with sweeping views across Lake Lucerne and the Alps.

Strategic central location

Kriens functions as both suburb and gateway, with VBL trolleybuses connecting you to Lucerne's Chapel Bridge and Lion Monument in 15 minutes. The town's position makes Lake Lucerne boat cruises and Mount Rigi excursions easily accessible, while Kriens Mattenhof station serves the developing business corridor efficiently.
