When you come to Bled, don't miss an enjoyable ride to the Bled island with a special boat 'pletna'. There, you'll find the emblem of Gorenjska-the Church of the Assumption. According to a legend, the temple of the ancient Slavic goddess Živa, once stood in the place of the present church. The 1st church on the island was consecrated in 1142. In the 15th century it was rebuilt, together with a freestanding bell tower and the main altar. The present look of the church dates from the 17th century, when it was renovated after an earthquake. The main altar with its rich gold-plated carving is from 1747 whereas the side altars of St Sebastian, St Magdalena and St Anna were made at the end of the 17th century. The central part of the altar is showing the seated Virgin Mary with Henrik II, the donor of the Bled estate, and his wife Kunigunda next to her. The bell tower, which was built in the 15th century, has been renovated several times. The present 1 is 54m high and has 3 bells made by the bell makers from Ljubljana.

 Blejski otocic by croisbeauty There exist another approach to the top of the islet, situated on its northern side. It has less steps, it is less steep and always in the shadow of greenery. I suggest this side-approach to those who have climbing problems. Leave a Comment Address: The islet of Bled

 The islet of Bled by croisbeauty Perhaps you didn't know, Slovenia is Mediterranean country too, having a tiny coastline on its most western side. However, and that might sounds strange, the only island that exist in the country is situated in the middle of the Bled Lake. Perhaps it is why this island, or better say islet, is so charming. There are 99 steps to the top of the island where the landmark of the lake, aswell as one of the best known landmarks of Slovenia, is situated.

Childtren, are feeding the ducks. Not only children. Throwing pieces of bread, they invite tens of ducks which float near the coastline, and sometimes a swan's couple too. Leave a Comment

by easterntrekker It is hard to imagine how beautiful Lake Bled is. The water is so clean and clear you can see the fish near the bottom. We enjoyed strolling in the morning and evening the best. There are lots of benches on the shores to simply relax and enjoy the beauty. Directions: If you walk or drive around lake, you will see where people swim.

 Very beautiful ! by coceng Okay, let our journey begin in Bled. After checking in at Pension Bledec ( Youth Hostel, one of the most beautiful in the world !), I started to walk towards the lake. Very beautiful, calm at certain parts. On the left photo you could see the church on the small islet in the middle of the lake ! Also, notice the backdrop of the mountain range at the back, Triglav National Park or rather Julian Alps. Leave a Comment Directions: Towards the lake in Bled.

 A hotel by the lakeside... by coceng This is my view of the lake. Calm water & all around the lake you could see tourist establishments, hotels, activities complex etc. Lake Bled attracts tourists almost year round & it's a beautiful area as well, but this is a must see area in Slovenia. As with all the people who would be agree in coming to bombard this town! Leave a Comment Directions: As you are nearer the lake, you wouldn't miss seeing all the activities & people surrounding the lake.
