Bled and Bohinj between Nature and Tradition
Explore two alpine jewels of Slovenia: the romantic Lake Bled with its island and castle, and the serene Bohinj, surrounded by mountains and legends. A day full of unforgettable landscapes, history and local flavors.
Join me to discover two alpine treasures of Slovenia: Bled and Bohinj.
We start at the iconic Lake Bled, where you will have the chance to sail on a traditional pletna boat to the small island, visit the baroque church and ring the wishing bell.
You can taste the delicious potica, a typical Slovenian cake, while gazing at the medieval castle of Bled, suspended on a cliff. I will tell you the legend of the sunken bell and the story of the Brixen bishops, as well as the visionary ideas of Dr. Rikli, a pioneer of health tourism.
Then we will head to the wilder and more serene Bohinj Lake, surrounded by the majestic Julian Alps, where the Church of St. John the Baptist is located. Finally you can enjoy the local cuisine in a typical gostilna.
This tour combines nature, history, culture and authentic flavors in one unforgettable day, ideal for those who are looking for beauty and connection with the locals!
