About this experience
A walking, rowing, and swimming tour of Lake Bled is a great way to explore the beautiful scenery of this stunning location. You can start by visiting the castle, which offers a breathtaking view of the lake and its surroundings. The castle entrance fee is around 14 euros, but it's worth it for the amazing view alone.
After visiting the castle, you can rent a boat and row to the island in the middle of the lake. The rowing experience is quite peaceful as there are no motor boats allowed on the lake. It is a perfect opportunity to enjoy the serene atmosphere and take in the views of the Julian Alps.
Once you reach the island, you can explore the charming church and ring the bell for good luck. You can also enjoy a local specialty, the Bled cream cake, which is a must-try when in the area.
Afterward, you can swim in the crystal clear waters of the lake, so make sure to bring a pair of swimming shorts with you. The water is cool, refreshing, and the perfect way to cool off after a day of exploring.
Overall, a tour of Lake Bled is a fantastic experience that allows you to explore the natural beauty of the area while enjoying various activities. From the stunning view of the castle to the peaceful rowing experience and the refreshing swim in the lake, it is an experience not to be missed.
