About this activity

Already in the second half of the 19th century, the Swiss hydropath recognised the advantages of air baths, clean water, sun rays and a proper diet. Exercising in nature restores health and strengthens the spirit. Bled is a true paradise for this kind of experience. We invite you to spend the day with Arnold Rikli!

The first stop of our therapeutic path is the Triglavska roža Infocenter, where we will be greeted by Arnold Rikli. Together with Rikli we will head toward the weather house in the Spa Park and from there to Bled Castle. Across Višce hill we will head toward the Garden of Tastes. Experience the spirit of the herb labyrinth and enjoy preparing Rikli’s meal. There, a traditional horse-drawn carriage will wait for us and take us for a romantic ride to the Živa wellness centre. We will step into the evening with a magnificent dinner at the Julijana restaurant.
