It’s that point once more, a time to have a look again on a tremendous yr and recap the most effective of the most effective. We’re going to kick issues off with my favourite vacation spot of 2015: Bled, Slovenia.
Lake Bled
Bled is within the northwest a part of Slovenia, a small nation simply south of Austria. For those who’re in western Austria already (visiting Hallstatt or my favourite little village of St. Gilgen) it’s a straightforward drive south into Slovenia. The roads are nice and Bled is a good in a single day cease, both to see Bled itself or to see each Bled and Slovenia’s capital of Lublub Jubjlub Ljubljana (about 45 minutes away). I like Slovenia as a result of it feels far more international and unexplored than Austria regardless of being so shut. Pretty folks too.

There are not any large chain accommodations in Bled, however loads of B&Bs and smaller accommodations to suit nearly any finances. You’ll be able to stroll across the total lake and I spend a lot of my time every time I’m going to Bled doing simply that.

I walked away from the city a bit in the direction of the island to try to catch a sundown. The sundown simply ended up being hazy and massively vivid so it wasn’t a lot good for footage however I acquired another nice footage that I’ve been very proud of.

Bled’s fort sits excessive on a hilltop overlooking the lake. It appears prefer it’s proper out of the pages of historical past, apart from the large tower crane performing some renovations.
Bled Citadel
The city of Bled surrounds the lake with loads of touristy eating places to select from. It’s positively a vacationer cease however that shouldn’t steer you away. There are many methods to get out of city a bit. An early and frigid hike took me to a spot known as Osojnica, which has the most effective views of Lake Bled and Bled Island. It’s certainly one of many hikes that I’d suggest doing, the Julian Alps are such a lovely space!
