Bled

Lake Bled, with its church on the island and castle on the cliff, is Slovenia’s most recognisable and most frequently photographed landmark.

Bled is a town on the shores of Lake Bled and is one of the oldest and most beautiful tourist destinations in Slovenia. It lies at an altitude of 507 m amidst a landscape shaped by a glacier, where the glacier left behind a deep basin which, as it melted, filled with water.

The lake is 2,120 metres long and between 500 and 1,000 metres wide, with the water temperature reaching a maximum of 25 °C; in winter, the lake often freezes over. The beauty of the lake is enhanced by a unique island with a church, which you can reach by traditional flat-bottomed boat.

We recommend:

  • Bled Castle
  • Bled Island and the Church of the Assumption of Mary
  • St Martin’s Church
  • Vintgar Gorge
  • Adrenaline Park

Distance from the apartment: approx. 25 km.
