    Nice lake but the parking spots are way to expensiv. About 15 hours per day (sometimes its the only possible tickets). And no other options but 2 hours parking slots . Seemed unfair to me  more »
  • By Marc_and_Kim_Z
    Maybe 7ish miles to walk the lake. What a fantastic way to spend the morning. If in the area you’ve got to stop and take the time and enjoy. Enjoy the pics!!!  more »

    A Second heavenly lake after being in lake Bled. You can see it from above if you take the cable car.
  • By Vidit Mathur
    Great scenic views, clear water, loads of options to swim by the lake, but very expensive parking !
