From there it runs in a north-westerly direction through the Gigeliwald and runs to the west of the Lucerne district of Obergütsch and the Gütschwald to the Böschenhof farmstead. From there it runs to the south-west up the slopes of Mount Sonnenberg and Mount Blettenberg to the Gspan farmstead. It turns thence to the south-east, separating the hamlet of Holderchäppeli (elev. 935 m (3,068 ft)), running over Mount Würzenegg (elev. 1,146 m (3,760 ft)), Mount Chraigütsch (elev. 1,081 m (3,547 ft)) and Mount Höchberg (elev. 1,162 m (3,812 ft)) on its way to Mount Lauelenegg (elev. 1,442 m (4,731 ft)) northwest of Pilatus. Thence the municipal border leads to the north-east over Mount Fräkmüntegg (elev. 1,469 m (4,820 ft)), and Mount Biele (elev. 1,373 m (4,505 ft)) to the Hochwald. From there the border leads to Steinibach and shortly thereafter, nearly to the train station in <a href="/wiki/Horw" title="Horw">Horw</a>. From there it follows the (partially former) train track toward Lucerne in a north-easterly direction back to the property of the brewery. </p><p>The eastern part of Kriens (the districts near the city and near Horw) lie in a valley. From Kupferhammer the land gently rises to the west, toward Obernau (elevation difference between Kupferhammer and Obernau less than 90 m (300 ft) ). </p><p>To the north of the town is the small, forested southern slope of Mount Sonnenberg. The slope to the south of town is the northern side of Mount Schattenberg. </p><p>The Schattenberg is the first rise of Mount Pilatus. The lower part is cleared and partially developed, however the majority of the land west of Obernau and south of town is forest. West of the line connecting Krienseregg and Fräkmüntegg there is a large, flat swamp, from which is the starting point of many brooks (including Tschuggenbach, Weissbach, Rotbach, and Renggbach). The whole area forms part of the north slope of Pilatus. </p><p>Of importance is the stream the Unterer Krienbach, which often caused floods before it was covered. It flows through the town and empties into the <a href="/wiki/Reuss_(river)" title="Reuss (river)">Reuss</a> in Lucerne.

The Kriens-Lucerne-Railways (Kriens-Luzern-Bahn KLB) handled passenger traffic from 1886 to 1900. Until 1998 the tracks were used for freight services from Lucerne to Kriens. As the tracks were laid in the road, they were in the way and were finally removed 2004, when the town centre was redeveloped. But the same year, passenger rail service was restored to Kriens. The <a href="/wiki/Kriens_Mattenhof_railway_station" title="Kriens Mattenhof railway station">Kriens-Mattenhof station</a> opened on the rail line between Lucerne and Interlaken/Engelberg in December 2004. It is served by the S4, S5 and in the rush hour by the S41 of the <a href="/wiki/Zentralbahn" title="Zentralbahn">Zentralbahn</a>. However, the station is closer to Horw and parts of Lucerne than to the city centre of Kriens. </p><p>Despite this, Kriens has an outstanding public transportation system. Line 1 of the <a href="/wiki/Verkehrsbetriebe_Luzern" title="Verkehrsbetriebe Luzern">VBL bus company</a> goes from Lucerne to Kriens-Obernau via the town center and Line 5 connects Kriens directly to <a href="/wiki/Emmenbr%C3%BCcke" class="mw-redirect" title="Emmenbrücke">Emmenbrücke</a>, not serving the city centre of Lucerne. Lines 15 and 16 make other communities of Kriens accessible by public transportation. In 2005, Line 16 was extended to the train station in Horw. Additionally, the bus lines 14 and 21 go from Lucerne to Kriens, partially via Horw.
