The Lake Bled City Guides answer the questions every visitor has: where to eat cream cake and štruklji without paying for the view, which free viewpoints beat the boat to the island, what to do when the gorges close for winter and how to reach Bohinj by bus. Each guide is a short, opinionated list that gives the reason to go, what to order or see and one practical tip for every place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Gostilna Lectar
Linhartov trg 2, Radovljica old town
A historic house on the main square turned into a themed inn, with a gingerbread workshop in the cellar below. Plates arrive enormous: go for the jota stew or the ravioli with pancetta and leek, and finish with gibanica. From the food guide.
Ojstrica Viewpoint
South-west shore, 20 to 30 min climb
The view on every Bled postcard: island, church and castle on the water with the Julian Alps behind them. A rocky path gets you up in under half an hour and it costs nothing. Come in the first hour of sunshine. From the things to do guide.
Vinoteka Zdravljica
Cesta svobode 7, near Festival Hall
A tiny wine bar and shop that pours nothing but Slovenian wine, red, white and orange. The owner talks you through each bottle and puts out salty snacks. The best spot in Bled for a glass before dinner. From the nightlife guide.
Plan your days at Lake Bled
Day one stays in Bled: an early climb to a viewpoint, the castle, a slow walk around the lake and dinner at a Slovene inn from the food guide. Day two heads into the Bohinj valley for the second lake, a gorge walk and a hot meal in a farm village. For a rainy or slow day, mix the family and budget guides: the beekeeping museum and old town of Radovljica, a bakery breakfast and a glass of Slovenian wine in the evening.
