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 to the nearby houses, where from the crossroad we continue straight (to the left, the road from where we came from to the starting point), and then the village quickly ends. Next follows an easy descent through a meadow, from which a nice view opens up, which reaches to the highest peaks of Kamnik Savinja Alps, and when the descent ends, we start moderately ascending. We quickly get to a crossroad, where the forest road branches off to the left, and we continue straight on the road which leads further towards the settlement Brezje nad Kamnikom. Approximately 50 meters ahead, we go from the road left on a cart track which leads diagonally towards the left and leads us a little above the nearby meadow. Next follows a diagonal ascent towards the left, and when we reach an indistinct ridge, the path splits.
To the right continues the eastern path, and we continue straight in the direction of the path Pot razgleda. Few steps further, the signs for path Pot razgleda point us to the right on a ridge, on which we are at first still ascending through the forest, and higher on partly panoramic part. Few minutes ahead, we join the eastern path, and then on a quite gently sloping path, we quickly reach the peak of Vovar.
