Bled is not as unspoiled as Bohinj, however it is such a charming and pretty place you will not hold it against it.
If you want to go somewhere to come back to your senses and commune with the nature, Bled should be on the top of your list. It is such a pretty alpine...

When you see the beautiful medieval Castle of Bled up there in the rocky cliffs – you feel this urge to go and have a look! This is the oldest castle of Slovenia, more than 1000 years old!!

Bled casino is not much of a choice, I guess it’s the only in town and there isn’t anywhere to go out. It was only me and a bunch of Italian speaking guys playing roulette. They change your...

The inn looked quite cozy on the outside, a sea-like refuge. We were actually just on our way back from Vintgar Gorge. The fresh air at the gorge was a bit spoiled by the smoke inside. I guess there was something going on with the air ventilation system. We didn’t care too much though as we are...

I always wondered why they call it white water rafting. The waters of the river Sava are somewhere between green and blue, a turquoise perhaps, and are waiting for all the fans of the sport to try their luck. I’m not a fan, nor do I practice rafting but I enjoy seeing other people get soaked in...

Water is the perfect artist. It made its carvings at Vintgar Gorge and what a work of art it did. The tour starts by paying around 2 euro for the entrance. It is a bit steep because normally nature...

Lake Bled is a busy place. It is enough to give tourists some gondola rides on the lake and everybody’s crawling in. But, they are right to do so. First of all there is the church of the Assumption on a small island in the middle of the lake. Then, you have the surrounding mountain tops covered...

In Bled I certainly wanted to visit the castle. It started off with one tower, one thousand years ago and but later fortifications and constructions made it look like today. It is on top of a...

Everyone will love Bled. Even the most neurotic townie won´t resist the overwhelming charme and simply mind-blowing beauty of this place. If you ever wondered where the pretty pricesses in fairy tales live - this is it. Surrounded by the Julian Alps the little town of Bled is all about the lake...
