When running back and forth along rivers, you always have to ask yourself which bridge to choose to get to the other bank and thus on the way back. Here is one possibility, with a beautiful view of the river as so often.

Besides the main road and the railway tracks, there is a pleasantly flat path directly on the banks of the Reuss. Perfect for walking from the city to Emmen (or vice versa).
