Path description:
From the parking lot, go back a few steps and then take a sharp right, onto the path that leads between the older houses, where you will see a marker. There are no more markings, but the path leads past the chapel, then along the edge of the plateau to the houses on the other side of the meadow, where you step out onto the macadam road. When the road starts to climb, a slightly off-beaten path to the right leads to a nearby lookout point less than 5 minutes away, and we continue along the road, which quickly leads us to a crossroads, where we take a sharp right. There is some more ascent and the road leads us to a place where it starts to descend towards the settlement Brezje nad Kamnikom, and we leave it here and continue to the left on cart track in the direction of Vovar Peak.
Continue on cart track, which climbs the north to north-east ridge of Vovar, and higher up we cross a few trains, most of which were made after the 2008 windstorm. Higher up we continue on a well-trodden forest path, which we follow all the way to the summit, where there are a few benches, a registration box with a registration book and stamp, and a wishing bell.
