Bakovnik (pronounced [ˈbaːkɔu̯nik], German: Bakounik[1][2]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Kamnik in central Slovenia.

The area is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola.

The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.

Bakovnik was annexed by Kamnik in 1934, ending its existence as an independent settlement.

[3][4] Bakovnik quickly urbanized after its annexation and lost its original agricultural character.
