Lake Bled

An island church and cliff-top castle rise above Lake Bled, framed together from the wooded summit of Ojstrica.

Climb Ojstrica for the island, castle and Karavanke in one view, then take a pletna from Mlino or follow the lakeshore path. The viewpoint is free; boats, the island attractions and castle require payment. Ojstrica is steep and rocky, while higher Mala Osojnica has steel stairs and handrails of mixed reliability; avoid both in snow or ice.
