From Ljubljana head to the Alpine region below the Julian Alps and reach Bled, the magnificent Alpine resort with the only true island in Slovenia. For centuries Bled has been the symbol of natural beauty and home to fairy tales. Ascend the old 12th-century castle, perched on top of a steep cliff with spectacular views of the lake, the famous Bled island and the surrounding peaks. The castle is not only home to fairy tale weddings, cultural events and important protocol meetings, but also a museum of manual printing and a wine cellar. A boat ride with ‘Pletna’ – traditional boat made by the locals, is among the must-do things when visiting Bled. Not only because of the authentic boat experience, but because of a true journey back in time. Standing paddlers take you to the island with 99 stone steps on the way to the Assumption of Mary church and the fortune bell. Make sure not to miss the Bled cream cake, a delicious local dessert famous all around Slovenia, before leaving town and heading back to Ljubljana.
