Overview

A small-group day from Ljubljana to Lake Bled and Triglav National Park, with a licensed local guide and up to 8 guests. Your afternoon, your choice.

Lake Bled first, and properly: four hours for the lakeshore walk, the pletna boat to the island if you like, the castle above the water, and lunch with the Julian Alps as the backdrop.

Then the day splits by the option you book. Triglav National Park: your guide drives the Radovna Valley under Mount Triglav to Kranjska Gora, Lake Jasna and the Zelenci springs. Free afternoon at Bled: swim, rent a SUP, ride the summer toboggan or hike above the lake, on your own. Rafting or zipline: an adventure with licensed activity guides, fee paid separately, we reserve your spot. Bled options are picked up at 17:00 at the Bled bus station; everyone is back in Ljubljana by early evening.

Max 8 in a comfortable minivan, not a big coach. Admissions optional, prices shared upfront. Same local team since 2011, official Gray Line Slovenia licensee.
