Bled

Slovenia
Bled travel packages

"A Second Eden."

Bled's beginnings go back more than 1,000 years. This small town rich in history has plenty to offer visitors. Just a short drive from Ljubljana, Lake Bled is an ideal day trip. But it's also worth spending more time here. The surrounding mountains reflect on the emerald lake below. A large medieval castle forms the town's backdrop. Lake Bled's highlight is Slovenia's only natural island. Set in the middle of the pristine lake, the island houses a 15th century baroque church. It's one of Slovenia's most popular tourist attractions. But the castle and island are only two reasons to visit Lake Bled.

Seeing Lake Bled is one of our favorite things to do in Slovenia. The area is ideal for swimming, rowing, kayaking, and rafting. You could also go hiking, enjoy a round of golf, or go fishing at Lake Bled. As a glacial lake, Bled is known for its mild climate and soothing thermal waters. While visiting Lake Bled, a short trip to Bohinj and the largest natural lake in Slovenia shouldn't be missed. Bohinj is less touristy and its surroundings are pristine. If you have time, Kranjska Gora and the Julian Alps are an easy trip. For those with a sweet tooth, Bled's famous Kremsnita pastry will also be sure to satisfy.

What I love about Bled

Travel Advisor

This quaint lake town just a short drive outside of Ljubljana provides an amazing getaway for a few days. Definitely do not miss visiting the 11th Century castle that watches over the lake, or simply taking a stroll around the lake and exploring what the town has to offer.

We were so well cared for, it took all the worry out of getting around and making arrangements. The tour that was planned for us was exactly what we hoped for. We have both agreed it was one of the best holidays we have ever had... and we have traveled all over the world for many years.
