9 days in Bled Itinerary

The most popular resort in Slovenia, Bled is marked by its iconic church steeple and medieval castle on glacial Lake Bled.

Take a break from the city and head to Peričnik Falls and Zelenci Nature Reserve. You'll discover tucked-away gems like St. Martin's Parish Church and Mala Osojnica. Change things up with these side-trips from Bled: Bovec (Boka Waterfall, Ravelnik Open Air Museum, &more), Soča (Church of St. Joseph & Source of the Soča River) and Memorial Church of the Holy Spirit (in Tolmin). And it doesn't end there: Head underground at Pokljuka Gorge, fly down the slopes at Krvavec, take in the dramatic scenery at Martuljek Waterfalls, and glide peacefully along the water with some of the best stand-up paddleboarding in the area.

To find where to stay, photos, ratings, and other tourist information, refer to the Bled trip planner.

If you are flying in from Germany, the closest major aiport is Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport. In July, plan for daily highs up to 32°C, and evening lows to 17°C. Cap off your sightseeing on the 1st (Sat) early enough to travel back home.
