Lake Bled is probably the first place that springs to mind when you think of Slovenia. This serene glacial lake captivates travellers throughout the seasons and is undeniably beautiful – and it's just one of Slovenia's many beauty spots.

If you're a fan of lakes and mountain holidays, Slovenia is a dream and is packed with natural sights to soak up, from Lake Bled to its majestic peaks.

VISIT BLED WITH COUNTRY LIVING

The tiny country that sits in the heart of Europe is characterised by its blue lakes, endless mountains and charming towns. Its capital city Ljubljana is one one of the greenest cities in Europe, while the striking Julian Alps dazzles with its peak Mt Triglav and lovely Lake Bohinj (which, in our opinion, is just as charming as Bled).

During a holiday to Slovenia, walking is a must, while cycling and getting around by coach or train are other ways to explore the compact country.

From outstanding lake views to picturesque waterfalls, Slovenia has plenty to entertain lovers of nature. In fact, you can get to know the country's best bits by joining Country Living's exclusive six-day tour of the country in spring or autumn 2024.

Combining the tranquility of Lake Bled with fantastic excursions, including a tour of the UNESCO-protected Skocjan Caves and a scenic mountain drive through Triglav National Park, it's set to be a holiday to remember. You will also get to explore the charming old town of Slovenia's capital, Ljubljana, and take in the pretty coastal town of Piran.
