Bled is on the doorstep of the Julian Alps, the biggest and most iconic mountain range in Slovenia. Going on a guided hike in its winter wonderland will surely be a delight. 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.

If you’re up for it, get a head start on your day by hiking up a hill in the early morning to catch a view of the sun rising above Lake Bled. After breakfast, pack your skis and head out for a bit of cross-country skiing. You’ll drive up to the Pokljuka plateau, an expansive area filled with pine forests. In its midst is a sports center, where Biathlon World Cup takes place each year. Whether you’re an experienced skier or just beginning, there’s something out here for everyone!
After returning back to Bled, you can opt for some more sightseeing of the lake surroundings, like the Bled Castle.

Snowshoeing is a unique experience that allows you to move anywhere on the snow without needing to make trails, and it feels like you’re floating. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to try something new, and it’s easy and suitable for anyone.
Your guide will take you up to the trails near Vogel Ski Resort via a cable car ride. There, you will explore the snowy trails with a magnificent bird’s eye view of Lake Bohinj and a panoramic vista of the Julian Alps.

In the afternoon a unique adventure awaits you — dog sledding!
