Stay on the bus until Camp Bohinj for Savica Waterfall and Vogel Cable Car. Otherwise, drive or ride a bus from Ljubljana bus station to Bohinj for a day trip. There are plenty of things you can do here like taking boat rides across the water, hiking along the north bank (and continuing to Savica Waterfall if you have the energy), hiking at Mostnica Gorge and riding the Vogel Cable Carfor fantastic aerial views of the lake.Īlthough I spent nearly a week around Bled and Bohinj, you can even see them both during a lakes day trip from Ljubljanaif you’re in a rush. Equally beautiful Lake Bohinj A cloudy day hiking around Lake BohinjĪlthough Bled gets all the hype, I was just as blown away by Lake Bohinj. GetYourGuide offer a Lake Bled & Bled Castle tour or a Lake Bled & Vintgar Gorge tour. Getting there: Drive, catch a bus from Ljubljana bus station or book an organised day tour. It gets swamped by tourists in summer with few accommodation options available. The winter months can be a snowy and enchanting time to visit but the ultimate window is shoulder season: April-June and September-October. Nearby Vintgar Gorge is a dreamy location to feel at one with nature.
Things to do include walking around the lake, hiking up to Osojnica viewpoint, hiring a boat to paddle across the lake, or boarding the taxi boats destined for the island. With brilliant blue waters, towering snow-capped mountains and a tiny island accessible by paddleboat, it looks too perfect to be true. If there’s one super hyped and famous place that doesn’t fall short, it’s Lake Bled.

I believe they’ve now been replaced with normal ones, however.įor a cultural thing to do in Ljubljana, visit the staircase, entrance hall, Plečnik Hallway and cafe from 10am-6pm, Mon-Fri and 2.30-6pm Saturdays. Be studious at the National & University Libraryĭesigned by Jože Plečnik, the National & University Library was built on the site of a Baroque palace destroyed by an earthquake in 1895. The complex carvings show all kinds of details including historical figures and buildings. However, the most impressive feature may be the bronze doors which, from the outside, tell the story of 1,250 years of Slovene Christianity. St Nicholas’ Cathedral is certainly more impressive inside than out with ornate details including angels on the altar designed by local architect, Robba. Like other European capitals, Ljubljana Cathedral is historically one of the most important buildings in the city.
