The Pokljuka Plateau just above Lake Bled offers a gateway to the Triglav National Park. Its pine forests make for some beautiful scenery, and the area is a great starting point for winter hikes up higher peaks of the Julian Alps as well as easier trails around the plateau. Your guide will adjust the hike to the weather conditions and your capabilities, whether you are an expert hiker or a novice. You might be able to even hike to an iconic Triglav viewpoint.
