At a glance
Beach Club Kriens is an outdoor beach-volleyball facility at Horwerstrasse 24b in Kriens, beside Parkbad Kriens and at the foot of Pilatus. The venue is centred on sand courts rather than restaurant dining, making it a sporting destination for organised play, casual games and club activities.
The Beach Arena has six courts arranged across a spacious outdoor area. The setting accommodates different levels of play, from ambitious teams and regular club training to friends meeting for a game, school groups and sports clubs. Children can also become familiar with beach volleyball in an informal environment.
The atmosphere is active and communal, with the club supporting tournaments, events and the ongoing operation of the facility. The venue suits players looking for a dedicated place to train or play, as well as groups planning a beach-sport activity in the Kriens area. Its position near the Parkbad also places it within a leisure-focused setting, while the Pilatus backdrop gives the courts a distinct local character.
For visitors travelling from Zurich, Kriens offers a nearby option for outdoor beach volleyball without requiring a trip to a lakefront court. The facility is suitable for private games, regular training sessions, school use and club bookings. Court use is organised through reservations or on-site arrangements, depending on availability and the type of visit.
Beach Club Kriens is run as a sports club and facility rather than as a conventional hospitality venue. Food is not the focus, and the main experience comes from time on the sand, shared play and organised beach-sport activities. Groups benefit from the multi-court layout, while families and younger players can use the venue as an introduction to beach volleyball when suitable court space is available.
