For overnight stays to discover Bled with a campervan or motorhome in Bled, there are only two legal options:
PZA Seliše (the official motorhome stopover near Mercator) or one of the organised campsites in the surrounding area. The Municipality of Bled clearly states that campervans and motorhomes are not considered ordinary passenger vehicles and that overnight stays are only allowed in designated locations. The Bled Castle 2 parking area is available for daytime visits between 6:00 and 22:00, but overnight parking is not permitted.
Before your arrival, make sure you:
- Book in advance at a campsite or confirm availability at PZA Seliše, especially in July and August.
- Check availability at PZA Seliše, which can accommodate several motorhomes, although the total number of spaces depends on the number of buses using the area.
- Prepare payment methods: bring a card, EasyPark app access and cash, as payment options vary between locations.
- Plan water and waste management: PZA Seliše provides fresh water filling, electricity and grey water disposal.
Expert tip: In July and August, leave your campervan at a campsite or PZA and reach Bled town centre using the free seasonal shuttle bus or by bicycle. Traffic around the lake becomes extremely busy during peak season.

What should you check on your campervan before arriving in Bled?
Practical campervan preparation starts before you leave home. PZA Seliše provides
all essential services: fresh water refill, electricity, grey water disposal and sanitary facilities. Nevertheless, arriving with a full fresh water tank and an empty waste tank is always recommended.
Check your vehicle’s
height and length before entering the Bled Castle 2 parking area, which provides 16 spaces for motorhomes. The self-cleaning public toilets next to this parking area are modern and cost €1 per use with card payment. For
camping equipment and travel logistics, follow this simple rule: empty your chemical toilet before entering the town centre, not after.
How much does campervan parking cost and when should you book?
Parking prices vary depending on the season. At Bled Castle 2 parking, the motorhome parking fee is €3 per hour. PZA Seliše charges €30 for up to 24 hours including services from 1 July to 31 August (high season). Outside these dates, prices are usually lower, but we recommend checking the current price list upon arrival or with the Municipality of Bled. During peak season, simply arriving without a reservation is rarely a reliable strategy. Campsites such as Šobec and River Camping Bled are popular and fill up quickly. For July and August, booking 4–6 weeks in advance is recommended.
How to get from campsites to Bled town centre?
PZA Seliše is only a 10–15 minute walk from Lake Bled. Campsites such as Šobec and River Camping Bled are slightly further away, but free seasonal shuttle bus lines connect both locations with Bled during the summer months. Bicycles are also available for rent in the town centre. A traditional boat ride to Bled Island and a visit to Bled Castle are classic experiences that should not be missed.
Which campervan day trips from Bled are worth visiting?
Bled is an excellent starting point for day trips. Vintgar Gorge is only 4 km from Bled, while Triglav National Park can be reached via Bohinj or Kranjska Gora. For a
trip to Austria, the Karawanks border crossing is less than half an hour away. Radovljica, with its historic town centre, is only 7 km away and also offers organised motorhome parking.
Expert tip: Lake Bohinj is an excellent alternative for overnight campervan stays when Bled is fully booked. The distance is only 26 km.
