Bled on The Telegraph and Rough Guide’s bucket lists

Iconic Bled, embraced by the highest Slovenian peaks, and with a romantic island in the middle of an alpine lake, was recognized by The Telegraph as a destination you must visit. Surrounded by unspoilt nature, Bled is a perfect destination for active holidays, such as trekking, mountaineering, climbing and swimming in the summer. For a unique experience, spend the night in a treehouse at Garden Village Bled, where the Rough Guide’s editors believe you will immediately want to stay.

Feel green, active and healthy Slovenia at Bled, the iconic alpine city in the Gorenjska region. With its instantly recognizable, unique lake with an island in the middle, its surroundings are ideal for outdoor activities and active holidays. Numerous possibilities were noticed by The Telegraph, which ranked Bled on its bucket list of destinations you must see in your lifetime. Green nature with paths for trekking, mountaineering, rock climbing, mountain biking and water activities attract sports lovers from all over the world. As Steve Fallon, the Telegraph’s expert on Slovenia, says: “the lake itself is much more than a postcard image with a castle-topped island in the middle.”

Only a short walk away from the lake, the Garden Village is a place where fairy tales come to life. This is how the Rough Guide describes the alternative accommodation at Bled. They have ranked the Garden Village on their list of incredible treehouses you will immediately want to stay in. Spend the night in a romantic treehouse in the treetops or in the luxury glamping tents, staggered across the hillside. The tranquillity is complemented by wooden platforms and bridges, a unique restaurant where grass grows on the tables, and the peaceful natural surroundings.
