Vodice nad Kamnikom lies on a high level area on the northwest slope of Vovar Hill ({{convert|940|m|sp=us|disp=or}}). The lower end of the village is swampy, and in the higher parts the soil is loamy and stony with good sun exposure. Oševek Creek (a.k.a. Uševk), a tributary of the Nevljica River, starts at a spring south of the village center.{{cite book|last1=Savnik|first1=Roman|title=Krajevni leksikon Slovenije, vol. 2|date=1971|publisher=Državna založba Slovenije|location=Ljubljana|page=199}} The entrance to a natural cave that extends under Brezje nad Kamnikom lies along the road to Vodice nad Kamnikom.
