Bled and Lake Bled, with Slovenia's only natural island, are located at the foothills of the Julian Alps and have attracted lovers of beauty for years. Traditional boats called pletna sail to the island, home to the pilgrimage church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and its steep staircase, whose bell is a special homage to love.

Lake Bled is located in the Upper Carniola region (Gorenjska) near the spa town of Bled at the foot of the Pokljuka Plateau. The lake lies at an elevation of 475 m. It's easy to walk around the lake, and there are plenty of places to stop for refreshments! The cream cakes are an absolute must! During the summer months, it's very busy, especially on weekends! Cycling around the lake is not recommended!
