View of Lake Bled and Bled Island

Highlight • Viewpoint

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.

Vintgar Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Very beautiful gorge with crystal clear water. You should be there very early, otherwise crowds of tourists push through the gorge.

Bicycle Parking at Vintgar Gorge

Highlight • Parking

There is a large parking area for bicycles right next to the Vindgar Gorge. However, there are no lockers or places to store bike bags on site. Either take them with you (I wouldn't recommend this) or pack them so that you can leave them behind.

Lake Bled

Highlight • Lake

A circumnavigation of the lake of Bled is worthwhile. Because of the masses of tourists, otherwise you can not express that, I recommend to cycle around early in the morning, or to walk like everybody else.

Lake Bled Olympic Rowing Course

Highlight • Lake

Lake Bled and its surroundings are ideal for water sports as all natural conditions are there. Bled developed into an important rowing center in the post-war years. A number of national and international regattas and four world championships have been held here (1966, 1979, 1989 and 2011).
