Bled
he region around Bled is one of
Tthe most beautiful in Europe. Set
amongst stunning mountain peaks
and brimming with forests and
greenery, waterfalls and streams, it is
characterised by the iconic church
steeple that perches atop a tiny
island in the middle of the lake. Here
we enjoyed a wonderful sightseeing
tour including a visit to Bled Castle

Bohinj.
ater in the day we had a
LSPECIAL EXPERIENCE a visit to
the Alpine Dairy Farming Museum,
learning about the life of herdsmen
in an authentic environment and
tasting the locally produced cheeses..
