and Bohinj
Bled–Bohinj–Stara Fužina
The first stop on our tour will
be Bled Castle. After enjoying the view and seeing the museum
collection, we will try a “kremšnita”, a type of
traditional Bled flaky pastry made with vanilla and whipped
cream. A “pletna” (a traditional boat) will take us over to
Bled Island; ringing the bell in the island church will make
your wish come true. We will continue to Bohinj, stop at the
church of St. John, and visit the Alpine dairy museum in Stara
Fužina.
Then a short 25-minute walk will
take us from the Savica Mountain Hut to the magical Savica falls.
We will end the tour with a late lunch.Prešeren Square. From
here it is also possible to catch a boat on the Ljubljanica
river.

... that
couples still get married on Bled Island? According to tradition,
in order to ensure a long and happy marriage, the groom must
carry the bride up the 99 steps leading to the church. |
