More than 150 years ago, a Swiss doctor named Arnold Rikli came to Lake Bled and made a bold claim: real health can't be bought from a pharmacy. It comes from air, light, water, movement and simple food. 🌿
He built the first "air huts" on the shore of Bled, sending his guests into the hills, up to the summit of Triglav, and into the crisp mountain air, believing that unspoilt nature itself was the cure.
Just 20 minutes from where it all began, Pokljuka still holds that same untouched wilderness Rikli was searching for - dense forests, silence and some of the cleanest air in the Alps.
At Jakob's Lodge, we like to think Rikli would feel right at home here.
