Highlights
The starting point of this cycling tour is Bled with Lake Bled, the pearl of Slovenia. The picture of Bled with the castle, the lake and the island in the middle of the lake is known all over the world. Lake Bled enjoys a reputation of extraordinary beauty. The background of this paradise is formed of the wooded slopes of Jelovica and Pokljuka, the peaks of the Karavanke mountains and the Julian Alps with their highest peak, Triglav – a national symbol of the Slovenes.
From your hotel in Bled, you will leave every day for your bicycle tour. The programme gives you space for individual organization of the stages and guarantees fun for all cyclists, both for those athletically ambitious or the “pleasure-seeking”. The tour leads you into the side valleys of Bled, onto the Pokljuka high plateau and to Radovljica’s Old Town. Discover idyllic places and villages and be spoiled by the Bled cream cake and its typical alpine cuisine.
