  • Day 1

    Arrival in Bled

    Take a 45-minute shuttle from Ljubljana Airport to Lake Bled. Book your transfer ahead of time to avoid expensive taxi fares. Spend your first afternoon walking the 6km loop around the glacial lake. You'll find a well-marked path with great views of Bled Castle and the Julian Alps.

    
  • Day 2

    Biking Around Bled

    Get an early start with a guided mountain bike tour through Bled's countryside. The morning trails are quieter and cooler. A recent visitor shared: "The trails around Bled offer the perfect mix of challenge and scenery - bring a camera for those postcard-perfect lake views from higher vantage points." Keep your bike for the afternoon to visit spots like Vintgar Gorge just 7km from Bled.

    
  • Day 3

    Julian Alps Hiking

    Spend a full day hiking in Triglav National Park. The moderate trek takes 6-7 hours round trip to reach one of the accessible peaks. The mountain weather changes quickly so bring layers. Stop for lunch at a mountain hut and try their jota (bean soup) for about $15. The trails can be rocky so wear boots with good ankle support.

    
  • Day 4

    Canyoning and Rafting

    Take a 1.5-hour transfer to Log pod Mangartom for canyoning in Fratarica Canyon. The water stays cold even in summer so you'll need the wetsuit they provide. After lunch go rafting on the emerald Soča River near Bovec. You'll get safety training before tackling the grade III-IV rapids for 2.5 hours. The drive back through Vršič Pass takes about 2 hours with photo stops.

    
  • Day 5

    Via Ferrata Climbing

    Head to Gozd Martuljek for via ferrata climbing. You'll follow steel cables through a dramatic gorge. No experience needed but you should be reasonably fit. One climber said: "The via ferrata was challenging but totally manageable with the guide's help. The views of the waterfall made every step worth it."

    
  • Day 6

    Rock Climbing

    Take the morning to explore Bled Castle or visit the island church by pletna boat. In the afternoon go rock climbing at Bohinjska Bela just 15 minutes from Bled. The limestone walls work for all skill levels with routes from 5a to 7c. They provide equipment but wear comfortable clothes you can move in.

  • Day 7

    Departure

    Have breakfast before heading out. If you have a later flight take a 45-minute uphill walk to Ojstrica viewpoint for final Lake Bled photos. Airport shuttles start running at 4 AM but book at least a day ahead.

  • Day 1

    Ljubljana

    Explore Slovenia's capital Ljubljana on foot. Walk along the Ljubljanica River and visit the Triple Bridge (Tromostovje). Stay near Prešeren Square for easy access to the old town and public transport to Bled. Take the funicular up to Ljubljana Castle - it runs until 11pm in summer and gives you beautiful nighttime views of the city.

    
  • Day 2

    Ljubljana to Bled via Vintgar Gorge

    Catch the morning bus to Bled (1 hour). Visit Vintgar Gorge early to avoid crowds - it gets busy after 11am. The 1.6km wooden walkway can be slippery, so wear shoes with good grip. The round trip takes about 1.5 hours. You'll see the stunning 16-meter Sum waterfall at the end. Spend your afternoon getting your first look at Lake Bled's island church.

    
  • Day 3

    Mt Vogel and Lake Bohinj

    Take an early bus to Lake Bohinj (40 minutes from Bled). Get to the Mt Vogel cable car when it opens at 8am before afternoon clouds roll in. From the upper station at 1,535m, follow the trail to Orlove Glave. The hike takes 2-3 hours round trip. Bring extra layers for changing mountain weather. End your day with a swim at Ukanc beach on Lake Bohinj.

    
  • Day 4

    Bled Castle and Lake Activities

    Visit Bled Castle at 8am when it opens - the morning light makes for great photos. Take a pletna boat to the island (€14) but expect some waiting time in high season. A local tip: "Skip the expensive cream cake cafes right by the lake - the best kremšnita is actually at Hotel Park's cafe for half the price."

    
  • Day 5

    Soča River Rafting

    Drive to the Soča Valley (1.5 hours). Bring quick-dry clothes and secure footwear for rafting. The emerald Soča River offers Class II-III rapids, good for beginners but still exciting. The water stays cold (8-12°C) even in summer. Stop for lunch in Bovec and try the local Soča trout at Dobra Vila restaurant.

    
  • Day 6

    Cycling Around Lake Bled

    Start cycling in the morning when it's cooler. The basic Lake Bled loop is 6km on mostly flat ground. For more adventure, bike to medieval Radovljica (12km round trip). Book your bike rental in advance during peak season. Spend your afternoon paddleboarding or hiking to Ojstrica viewpoint.

    
  • Day 7

    Final Morning in Bled

    Watch the sunrise at Lake Bled if you're an early riser. With a late checkout, take one last walk around the lake (6km loop). Book your bus to Ljubljana airport ahead of time in summer.

  • Day 1

    Kranjska Gora

    Start your journey in this picturesque alpine town. Use this day to get your bike properly fitted and adjusted for the rides ahead. Local bike shops can help with any last-minute gear needs, but make sure to bring your own padded shorts and gloves.

    
  • Day 2

    Kranjska Gora to Bovec (60km)

    Start early for this challenging day with 1400m of climbing. Your route follows the Pišnica brook before climbing to Vršič Pass. Stop at the Russian Chapel, a World War I memorial that makes an ideal rest spot. The technical descent to Bovec runs alongside the beautiful emerald Soča River. Pack extra layers since morning temperatures in the Alps can be quite cool even in summer.

    
  • Day 3

    Bovec to Tolmin (52km)

    This route includes 1600m of climbing through villages beneath Mt. Krn. The climb to Kuhinja pasture is steep, so use an easy gear to save energy. You'll get great valley views during the descent through Zatolminske planine. Be careful of loose gravel on switchbacks. Fill up your water bottles before leaving Bovec as refill spots are limited.

    
  • Day 4

    Tolmin to Goriška Brda (48km)

    Start with a climb to Kolovrat mountain to see interesting WWI sites. Your reward is a descent into wine country. While the route drops 1200m overall, you'll still climb 1000m. A van transfer back to Tolmin helps save energy for the next day.

    
  • Day 5

    Tolmin to Zakojca (31km)

    This shorter but intense day includes 1100m of climbing along the Soča and Idrijca Rivers. Take breaks at viewpoints during the climb to Šentviška plateau. The remote plateau offers peaceful riding. Check your brakes beforehand since the descents require good control.

    
  • Day 6

    Zakojca to Bohinjska Bistrica (20km)

    Despite the short distance, you'll climb 860m before descending to Podbrdo. The initial descent is steep, so stay centered and brake carefully. If you can manage the extra effort, the Porezen viewpoint offers views stretching to the Adriatic on clear days.

  • Day 7

    Bohinj Lake

    Finish your trip with easy rides on Lake Bohinj's shoreline trails. The gentle lakeside path is perfect for recovery. You might want to rent a kayak for a different view of the Julian Alps.
