Welcome

Every visitor to Bled is charmed by its fantastic range of views and its captivating alpine lake. Bled Island, for centuries the symbol of the area, may be visited on one of the famous 'pletna'-boats, and it is customary to climb the 99 steps to the charming medieval chapel and ring the wishing bell in the hope that your dreams come true. An imposing clifftop castle broods over the lake and offers a stunning view across Bled, the surrounding area and Slovenia's highest peaks. Should you wish to view Bled in style, take a romantic carriage ride around the lake.
