Most visitors to Slovenia's lake country stop at Bled and never make it the extra 30 minutes to Bohinj, which suits the people who do go there just fine. Bohinj is the country's largest permanent lake by surface area, sitting entirely inside Triglav National Park, with none of the island church or castle that draw the crowds down the road, just clear water ringed by mountains.
A steep path above the lake's western end leads to Savica waterfall, which drops nearly 80 metres in two stages and feeds the Sava Bohinjka river. A cable car up to Vogel gives quieter alternative views over the whole valley without the walk, and in winter the same slopes turn into one of Slovenia's better-regarded ski areas, a season Bled's flatter surroundings cannot really compete with.
