The Gorenjska region
Situated in the north-western part of the country, Gorenjska is the most Alpine of all Slovenian regions. It borders on Austria and Italy and is criss-crossed by a well-developed transport infrastructure. The Gorenjska region is famous for its natural beauty and friendly people. Most of the region is covered by the Julian Alps with numerous peaks exceeding 200 m. The Julian Alps and Triglav National Park are rich with plant and animal life.
There are many opportunities for outdoor activities including hiking, skiing, ski-touring, rafting, paragliding, etc. Gorenjska is home to Lakes Bled and Bohinj. Lake Bled was formed after the retreat of the Bohinj glacier. It is up to 2120 m long and up to 1380 m wide, its maximum depth being 30.6 m. A small island in the middle of the lake is home to the Assumption of Mary Pilgrimage Church; visitors frequently ring its bell for good luck. Perched on a rock overlooking the lake is the iconic Bled Castle.
Lake Bohinj is also a glacier lake, but is twice the size of Bled. It’s also colder because it has many inflows. If you look at pictures of this beautiful region you will recognize Bohinj’s valley by St. Janez’s church and the stone bridge next to it.
With 2864, Triglav is the highest peak in Slovenia and its national symbol. In 1778, four locals from Bohinj climbed the mountain on the initiative of Žiga Zois who also financed the expedition. Today, Triglav is one of the most visited peaks in the Julian Alps.
Bohinj / Triglav National Park area

Bled itself is a charming town where you can visit the castle on the hill, or the island on the lake, not to mention great restaurants and shopping. From Pokljuka you can track to the highest Slovenian mountain Triglav (2864) in one day. Ljubljana itself is only an hour drive, international Brnik Airport is 40 minutes away.
