Gozd - Vovar (northern path)

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

Path description:
From the parking lot we return a few steps back, then we continue sharply right on the path that leads us among older houses and where we notice the marking. There are no more markings further on, but the path leads us past a chapel, then along the edge of the plateau to houses on the other side of the meadow, where we step onto a macadam road. When the road starts to ascend, a trodden path branches off slightly to the right to the nearby viewpoint, to which it is less than 5 minutes, and we continue on the road, which quickly brings us to a crossroads, where we go sharply right. There follows some more 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 continue left on a cart track in the direction of the summit Vovar.
We continue on the cart track, which ascends along the northern to northeastern ridge of Vovar, higher up we also cross a few tracks that were mostly made after the windthrow in 2008. Higher we continue on a well-trodden forest path, which we follow all the way to the summit, where there are a few benches, a stamping box with a logbook and a stamp, and a wishing bell.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in March 2020.
