Even if you may know nothing about Slovenia you may see a picture of Lake Bled. The lake is mainly known for the iconic small island in the middle of it, with the “Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Maria” on it. As we also wanted to see the lake for our self we drove from Lake Bohinj 30 minutes to Lake Bled. The lake is surrounded by mountains and the island in the middle of the lake gives a beautiful picture. Besides that it is mainly touristy. With tons of tourist buses, hotels and restaurant close to the lake. Also, the path around the lake is completely paved and with only 5 km it fells like a big ant road of people. On top of that, shutters were installed in the water for swimmers and rowers which complete take the natural beauty away from this place.
