Itinerary description
Easy route but an absolute must-do if you are in Slovenia (where I happened to be for my work..). The views on the lake and its surroundings are great from whichever point of the route, but really impressive from mount "Velika Osojnica". To reach the panoramic viewpoints indicated by the waypoints, take in the south-west corner of the lake a path indicated as Route 6 (see waypoints). It's a short, steep climb but absolutely worth the effort.
If you are in for a longer walk, I recommend to extend this route with the impressive Vintgar canyon, see e.g. this route.
- Route Milestones: Hotel Kompas (510 m) - Route around lake (480-500 m) - Route 6 to Velika Osojnica (680 m) - rest of Route around lake.
- Moving time: 2hr 05min
- Moving average: 4,5 km/hr

Great if you're near Bled for a while - the view is incredible (be sure to check both sides when arriving to the peak!)

Great trail. Signposted from the beginning and then with red 6 markings on the trees. Beautiful views and benches to sit after the hardest sections. The climb is a bit itchy but it is suitable for all ages, each one at their own pace. It is done mostly in the shade, a necessary condition to do it in summer when you are at 34 degrees. Thank you for sharing this beautiful trail!
