Right in the middle of Lake Bled is tiny Bled island. And when I say tiny, i mean allow yourself around 5 minutes to walk the whole island!
Bled island is part of the reason the area around Lake Bled is so pretty and picturesque. Bled is a gorgeous location situated in the Julian Alps with a castle perched above the lake and the little island in the middle.
To get to Bled Island you can grab a water taxi from the side of the lake (we got ours in front of the tourist information place). You can share your water taxi with others to save cash (just wait around where the boats are), but as we were there in winter there was no one around to share with so we just took our own over, for around 20 euros. The taxi will ferry you to the island and then wait for you to come back usually allowing you an hour which includes the ten minute ...
Advantages: Beautful scenery, kremsnita, plenty for children and adults Disadvantages: Crowds and traffic on busy days, not cheapest food, lack of self-catering accommodation
had a summer house here, which is now the Relais and Chateaux Hotel VilaBled overlooking the west end of the lake.
= WHAT IS THERE TO SEE? =
The obvious things to see are the lake and the castle. The lake is not particularly big (at its longest and widest 2.12km by 1.38km, maximum depth 30.6m), but is very scenic with an island in the middle. For reasons of space, I shall describe the lake, island and the traditional boats (pletna) in a separate review (scope for more pictures as well).
The castle sits atop a 130m hill on the north side of the lake, and is reached by a road which snakes up the back. Entry is ?6 for adults and ?3 for children. The walls of the castle date from the 16th century. There is a chapel ? currently being renovated ? a museum, showing the history of Bled, a cafeteria and a wine shop, although you ...
Advantages: Pretty, easy walking, not too long Disadvantages: Can get slightly crowded
the highest single drop waterfall in Slovenia, although unfortunately this is not nearly as dramatic or spectacular as you might wish. Next to this is the end of the path, which is marked by another entrance to the gorge, and a coffee shop. You can follow a footpath all the way back to Bled via the church at Katarina, which is some 4 km distant. The coffee shop here is very reasonably priced considering the location ? the ice creams being the same price you would expect to pay in a newsagent, rather than those at a top tourist attraction. The coffee, while cheap, was undoubtedly the worst we had in Slovenia. There are also toilets here.
