Gozd - Vovar (northern path)

Access to starting point:
A) We drive into Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of the mountain pass Črnivec and Gornji Grad. After the settlement Krivčevo for a short time, we still drive on the main road towards the mountain pass Črnivec, and then we continue right in the direction of the settlement Gozd. When we get to Gozd from the first crossroad we continue straight (right parish church of St. Ana in Gozd), and from the second, after the houses we turn right. From the next crossroad, at the hayrack we go straight (left hamlet Laze, right an already mentioned church), after that immediately once again right (the left road continues towards the settlement Brezje nad Kamnikom) and past few houses we drive to the parking lot near the chapel of rest.
B) We drive to mountain pass Volovljek or Črnivec, and then we start descending towards Kamnik. During the descent, we leave the main road and we continue left towards the settlement Gozd. When we get to Gozd from the first crossroad we continue straight (right parish church of St. Ana in Gozd), and from the second, after the houses we turn right. From the next crossroad, at the hayrack we go straight (left hamlet Laze, right an already mentioned church), after that immediately once again right (the left road continues towards the settlement Brezje nad Kamnikom) and past few houses we drive to the parking lot near the chapel of rest.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we return few steps back, and then we continue sharply right on the path which leads us among older houses and there we notice a trail blaze. Further, the blazes are gone, and the path leads past the chapel, and then by the edge of a plateau to houses on the other side of the meadow, where we step on a macadam road. When the road starts ascending, slightly to the right a beaten path branches off to the nearby viewpoint to which is less than 5 minutes, and we continue on the road which quickly brings us to a crossroad, where we go sharply right. Next follows some ascent and the road brings us to the spot, where it starts descending towards the settlement Brezje nad Kamnikom, and here we leave it and we continue left on a cart track in the direction of the summit Vovar.
We continue on the cart track which is ascending on the northern to northeastern ridge of Vovar, and higher we cross also few cart tracks, which were mostly made after the strong winds in the year 2008. Higher, we continue on a well-beaten forest path, which we follow all the way to the top, where there are few benches, an inscription box with an inscription book and a stamp and a wish bell.
Description and pictures refer to a condition in March 2020.
