Bled

About

Bled lies hidden away in the Slovenian part of the Julian Alps. A true fairytale-like gem that should be experienced at least once in a lifetime.

Bled is a place for which words aren't enough to describe it, and the pictures can not match their beauty. Even though Slovenia has an exit to the Adriatic sea, the only Slovenian island is actually located in the glacial Lake Bled. The area is very inviting for activities such as hiking, biking, and other various components of active holidays, as well as a relaxing oasis with its Old European charm.
