Bled is a popular destination in Slovenia due to its romantic scenery and access point for Triglav National Park, which offers numerous outdoor adventure opportunities. The town features a little white church on an island in the center of an emerald green mountain lake, with Bled Castle perched high above, amidst the Julian Alps.
A medieval fairytale castle with a romanesque tower, drawbridge and moat sits perched high, overlooking a calm, gleaming lake rippling only with a duck wing flap or a kayak paddle dip. In the center of it all sits a small island home to a church and legends, while al fresco cafes and ambient trails create an enjoyable outline.
For one of Lake Bled's best views, walk to Mala Osojnica. It's a fast hike, a bit on the tough side, but your reward is Lake Bled's iconic, aerial view.
The whole hike takes 45 minutes to a round trip of one hour (longer if you sit down and enjoy the view). You don't need hiking shoes though it is recommended to have a robust pair of shoes like running shoes.
