May sees temperatures continue to climb in Bled as the tourist season kicks off.
Daytime temperatures now reach a pleasant high of 21°C, but can cool to around 8°C in the evenings.
Lighter clothing would be appropriate for travelling around during the day, especially if you are planning to explore the surrounding countryside. However, there is still a risk of rain at this time of year so it is a good idea to keep a waterproof mac and umbrella handy.
Evenings in Bled can be quite chilly, so wearing warmer jackets would be a good idea.
Due to the much warmer weather, this is a great time of year for nature lovers to come to Bled as there is so much to see.
Lake Bled is a mile square body of water surrounding by the picturesque backdrop of the Julian Alps. You can hire a boat or take a boat tour to soak up the scenery.
The surrounding hills are ideal for hiking or hiring bikes to cycle through and Triglav National Park is a must-see for its array of glacial lakes and waterfalls, not to mention the sight of Mount Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak.
Bled Castle sits above the lake and is well worth a visit. This 1000 year old castle has a moat, drawbridge and courtyards and houses a fascinating museum, as well as a wine cellar that hosts regular tasting sessions.
And for those wanting a taste of the city, the capital, Ljubljana, is a short drive away and here you can visit many museums and art galleries or just explore the array of cafes and restaurants dotted around.
