7 Days in Slovenia: A traveler's guide to the beautiful nation
Welcome to Slovenia. This small country (the size of New Jersey) sits between Italy, Austria, and Croatia, and as you’ll see, is one of Europe’s raddest places to travel. We gave ourselves a week. Starting off in Lake Bled, we swam in one of the most postcard looking lakes you’ve ever seen before heading off to sail in the Adriatic. From here we explored the Soča Valley — a region with turquoise blue rivers and limitless adventure options. Farm to table food and family-run wineries are a way of life in Slovenia, and we were stoked to spend time with world famous chef Ana RoŠ from HiŠa Franko restaurant as well as Aleš Kristančič, the storied winemaker of Movia vineyards. Don’t overlook this country when thinking of your next travels to Europe.

Lake Bled Slovenia ????????STUNNING Natural Beauty & GREAT FOOD - Ljubljana Day Trip -197 Countries 3 Kids
Join us as we visit Bled - one of the most picturesque spots in Slovenia.
Lying along the glacial Lake Bled and surrounded by the foothills of the Julian Alps, the town of Bled is an absolutely stunning Slovenian resort town. The lake has all of the ingredients for a perfect getaway including an 11th-century medieval castle, Blejski Grad, perched high on a precipice above the town.
We arrived to Bled from Ljubljana and stayed at a Home Exchange in the nearby village of Bohinjska Bistrica for the first few nights. Bohinjska Bistrica is located near the border of Italy, Austria and Slovenia is home to Lake Bohinj – the largest lake in the country. There is a postcard-worthy church and bell tower, at the head of the lake beside a beautiful stone bridge, dating back at least 700 years! In the area there are also numerous waterfalls and Triglav National Park, the gateway to the highest mountain in the country Mount Triglav at 2864m.
As we explored the region, it felt like we were in a miniature Switzerland surrounded by beautiful mountains, chalets overflowing with flowers, water fountains and more - at a quarter of the cost!
During our time in Bled, we stayed at a beautiful hotel in town called Penzion Berc. Here we also had an amazing dinner at their onsite restaurant called Finefood Berg.
Bled is the perfect sized town to explore on foot or by bike and there is a beautiful walkway around the entire lake. We enjoyed a delicious lunch at Grajska Plaza as we walked along the lakeside walkway. It had outdoor pools on the lake with water slides going right into the water!
We also discovered that we could take electronic bikes to visit the lake. It was the most fun and fastest way to take a tour. We absolutely loved the peace and quiet as no motor boats are allowed on the water. Along the lake we discovered a hotel named Vila Bled that was once the residence of Tito, the leader of Yugoslavia.
In the middle of the lake there is an enchanting island to visit. Atop this small island is the Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Maria and some really good ice cream :-) We took a boat ourselves and had a small picnic in the middle of the lake.
We also visited the Bled Castle which has a tremendous view of the lake from the up above. The castle houses a museum, chapel and printing press!
Straza Bled was next on our list of places to visit in Bled and we are so glad we didn't miss it. Here we enjoyed an epic mountain coaster ride and later had a great meal at the Vegan Kitchen Restaurant.
Bled has many other outdoor attractions, including hiking trails, secluded swimming spots and in the winter, skiing and skating. We visited off season in October, which was a great time to discover the town with nice weather and less tourists.

Slovenia's Secret Lake | Triglav National Park Lake Bohinj + Lake Bled
We were surprised to know that Lake Bled is not the only beautiful lake in the Julian Alps region. The Triglav National Park is also home to Lake Bohinj, the biggest lake in Slovenia.
We visit the stunning lake Bled with Endless Adventure and tried the famous Bled cake at Bled Castle and it is up there with the best deserts, well worth the entrance fee to eat this delicacy.

???????? Slovenia: a travel documentary
#Slovenia #Travel #Documentary
Despite being there, a few hours drive, in Slovenia we have always passed but never stopped. This time we decided to dedicate a trip and a documentary to this country, our neighbor
Slovenia does not have big monuments or world-famous attractions, but a lot of little gems, small and perfect, not yet touched by mass tourism
This country has been able to synthesize and take the best of its most famous neighbors. In Piran, it seems to be in a district of Venice, in Prejama you wonder if we are in Transylvania, Bled is an alpine lake that might seem in Austria while Ljubljana could be the sister of Prague. We are not in Italy, Austria, Bohemia or Transylvania: we are in Slovenia, the green heart of Europe
Our itinerary has been organized like this
We arrived from Italy by car and, after passing Trieste, we stopped immediately after the border, in the small village of Pirano. Here we stayed two nights and we spent half a day to take a wonderful walk towards the salt flats of Strunjan. On the way to Ljubljana we stopped at the Postojna caves and at the magnificent Prejama tollhouse. In Ljubljana we stayed two nights. Excellent food, walks, clubs, nightlife and general relaxation characterize the Slovenian capital. From here, one hour's drive leads to Bled, an Alpine lake, an icon of Slovenia. Unfortunately we stayed only one night and the day was characterized by a summer storm. So we could not take advantage of all the sports that you can practice.
To return to Italy we crossed the Triglav chain by car and we went down along the Isonzo, to stop briefly in Caporetto, to remember the place of the bloody battle

7 Things To Do In Slovenia, Including Slap Kozjak Waterfall, Soča River, Vintgar Gorge
We spent 5 nights in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and so far its the most impressive and underrated country we have been to in all of Europe. Although we stayed in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, it is a rather quiet capital city and the perfect jumping off point. Every day we would drive about 1-2 hours to visit sights such as Lake Bled, Lake Bohinj, Soča River, Vintgar Gorge and the beautiful Slap Kozjak Waterfall.
Check out our top Seven Things To Do In Slovenia to get an idea of the beauty of this country and some off the beaten path places to visit.

Things To Do In Bled, Slovenia (Ljubljana Day Trip)
Read The Blog Post HERE:
As the clouds roll over the mountains they draw your attention to this lonely church sitting on this lonely island in the middle of a vast lake.
It’s beautiful. It’s magical. And I’ve never seen anything like it.
It’s the type of place you would only see in your dreams and the only way to access the church on the island is by boat, driven by a person, similar to gondolas in Venice.

Our Second Trip to Slovenia! Lake Bled, Christmas Markets, and the Julian Alps!
#slovenia #bled #triglav
A flight deal that was too good to pass up sent us back to one of our favorite regions and countries in the off-season. We've fallen in love with the Balkans, and in particular, Slovenia. We spent Thanksgiving 2019 showing family around Lake Bled and the Julian Alps and lucked into some incredibly clear fall weather.

Lake Bled is STUNNING! Slovenia
We had some doubts about visiting Lake Bled knowing how many visitors it attracts, but it blew us away with its beauty and charm. Generally speaking, Slovenia has been a revelation and one of the countries we most enjoyed on this trip.

After checking out the Predjama Castle and the Postojna Caves we headed to lake Bohinj. We hiked around the Vingar gorge area and up to the Mostnica Waterfall. We also completed a small hike on the back side of Lake Bled for a tremendous view of the lake and visited the town of Kranj where we met up with Roman who we had met a few days prior in Bled (he runs a clothing store...met him while looking for the jacket that Taryn purchased). We had an incredible trip and would most definitely recommend Slovenia, specifically the Triglav National Park area, as a place to explore if you love the outdoors. Best time to visit are the summer months, as this is when the weather is best and all of the tourist attractions are open.
