The steep 20-minute climb above the lake’s west end that produces the classic aerial view of the island.
Why visit
It is the only place you can see the whole lake, the island and the castle in one frame.
About
Mala Osojnica is the viewpoint behind almost every photograph of Bled taken from above. The path starts near the Velika Zaka car park and climbs about 200 m in twenty to thirty minutes, with metal steps and a steep, rooty section near the top. There is a platform at the summit and a second, lower viewpoint (Ojstrica) on a shorter branch, which is easier and nearly as good. Best in early morning light.
Good to know
Very slippery in wet conditions; the upper section is steep enough that a fall would matter.
