If you head north, to the heart of the Julian Alps, another undeniable Instagram-worthy highlight awaits you: Lake Bled, set among the mighty peaks of the Julian Alps, will impress you with the emerald green lake and picture-postcard church perched on a small islet. Adventurers can enjoy many hiking, biking canyoning and watersports opportunities in the area (for more adventures souls Bohinj, Kranjska Gora and Soča Valley are also not to miss), while those who appreciate a slower pace can indulge in a slice of traditional Bled cream cake at one of the many cafes that populate the shoreline.
