As Bled is a relatively small town, you're rarely far from somewhere to eat. A selection of restaurants serving traditional Slovenian fare can be found around town, with international offerings also available.

The town's culinary speciality is the 'kremna rezina' or cream cake. An enticing mix of butter dough and vanilla cream, these cakes are enjoyed by large numbers of locals and visitors.

Other local favourites include 'struklji' (dumplings made with cottage cheese), 'potica' (a walnut roll) and 'kraski parsut' (air-dried pork). Various different wines are also produced locally and are well worth sampling.

Some of the city's most popular restaurants can be found along Cesta Svobode and Ljubljanska, with the shopping centre on Ljubljanska providing a surprising number of tasty meal options. A selection of coffee shops and taverns can also be found on these streets.

From a castle on a hill to a plethora of churches to an extensive assortment of activities, Bled is full of things to see and do.

Some of the most popular attractions in the town include Bled Castle and the Church of the Assumption on the island of Lake Bled. In order to take in the stunning beauty of the lake in comfort, a trip on the tourist train could be a good idea.

For those who want a more active holiday, Bled offers a whole host of opportunities. Its proximity to Lake Bled, the Julian Alps and the Triglav National Park affords visitors with the chance to hike, cycle and swim.

Other activities you can partake in during your stay include golf, gliding, alpine climbing, canoeing and horse riding. Winter sports like skiing and skating are also popular here.
