Kranjska Gora A world-class ski centre is nestled in the Ju- lian Alps at the point of the tri-border between Slovenia, Italy and Austria. Kranjska Gora is an attractive mountain tourism and sports cen- tre throughout the year. During the winter mon- ths, it hosts competing Alpine skiers and sees top ski jumpers break new records at the near- by Planica. Cyclists also endeavour to conquer Slovenia’s highest mountain pass, while the- re are many points of interest where hikers can stop and take in the stunning scenery. Bohinj Bohinj is a paradise valley in the embrace of the Julian Alps. Lake Bohinj, which sits at the heart of Triglav National Park, one of the oldest na- tional parks in Europe, is Slovenia’s largest na- tural lake, situated at the foot of unspoilt mo- untains and towering peaks. The lake’s water temperature rises to 22°C during the summer, where it still stands today, near St. Mary’s Chur- ch. Those who ring the Bell and announce the- ir wish to the beloved widow of Lake Bled can be heard, and their wishes will be granted. So the le- gend goes… There is also Slovenia's oldest castle, which towers majestically over Lake Bled keeping wat- ch over its waters. No one comes to Bled witho- ut making the 130-metre trek up to the summit, where they are repaid tenfold for the effort wi- th breath-taking views over the lake and the ne- arby Alps.

Bled Lake Bled, along with the castle perched on a cli- ff overlooking it, represents one of Europe’s most beautiful Alpine resorts. This tourist gem loca- ted on the edge of Triglav National Park provides a fairy-tale image, romantic and timeless. The- re is much to keep you busy, but don't rush too much, as Bled isn't the place for that. What can top an early morning stroll around the lake itse- lf? Followed by a ride on a traditional pletna bo- at to Slovenia's only island?! This is Bled's answer to Venice's gondolas. Visit St. Mary’s Church and the monumental staircase with 99 stone steps leading from the harbour to the top of the island. There are many urban legends about Bled Island, some of which even inspired Slovenia’s greatest poet, France Prešeren. However, there is one par- ticular legend that is the best known: the legend of the sunken bell. The Bell of Desire was made in Padua in 1534. At the same time, in Bled Castle, a young widow wept for her departed husband, whose body had been thrown into Lake Bled. She collected all her silver and gold and cast them into a new bell, wi- th which she wanted to honour her dead love. The bell never arrived on the island, sinking in a raging storm, along with the boat and all the men aboard. Local residents of Bled say that they can still hear the bell, together with voices rising from the depths of the lake. After this accident, the desperate young widow sold all her posses- sions and left to take up residence at a nunnery in Rome. After her death, the Pope instructed that a new bell be forged and sent to Bled Island,
