Mojstrovke, Travnik, Šite, Jalovec to Tamar and Vršič

MANGRT27. 09. 2016 21:09:25

From Vršič via Hanzova to Mala Mojstrovka, then along the ridge path to Šite. Follows descent from the top into a steep traverse full of rocks and scree; at the end, again twice stem into the wall and down to the scree slope. Across the scree and between big rocks to the marked path towards Jalovec. At the top, nothing special: some people, five-minute break, and back towards Tamar. During the descent, some fixes on the cables are visible, but the marks are still faded. In Tamar, rest with a radler, then through Grlo back to Vršič and home. Very nice tour, but surely won't repeat for some years.

Yesterday, shortened version of MANGRT's masterpiece. From Vršič over Šitna glava to MM, then traverse over Mojstrovke, Travnik, Kol, Rob V. Dnine, Šite to the last notch before the main Šite summit, then towards Dnina and via the only easy passage to the slope to the marked path J. Škrbina - path Vršič - Z. p. Špič.

The ridge from Kol onwards is a completely different story than up to it - sharp, exposed, two orientationally complicated descents. On top of that, at the summit, which you bypass via the north traverse, I looked for a bypass to the south because I wrongly thought it was too early for the bypass via the north ledge. What a blunder! zmeden

Of all, the descent from Šite is the most mental anyway. Despite gear in the backpack, from the Šite summit I still didn't want to descend MANGRT-style because I wanted to find that passage from Dnina. Thanks to the only little man on the whole Dnina, standing exactly where needed. velik nasmeh

Sunrise below the summit of MM... the sun peeks between Špik and M. Martuljška ponca

The only serious part between ZM and Travnik (just before the penultimate notch before Travnik)

Descent from Kol indicates a different continuation of the story

Edge of Velika Dnama - nothing but fallen trees...

and a somewhat winding but beautiful passage to the next saddle - if you forgo the rope descent

also a view from Mala Šita back towards Kol and Travnik

and finally through the passage from V. Dnine to the area under J. Škrbina (bottom right where the wall is interrupted - lower wall continuation with scree prevents passage from Dnine in that direction)

Yesterday we went from Velika Mojstrovka to Travnik. In the route description it says you can return "via easier path that runs a bit lower on south side parallel to the ridge".
How to get to that path?

This will be the right topic for info: https://www.hribi.net/trenutne_razmere/slo/precenje_mojstrovk_do_travnika/1/1857

I searched with the search engine but didn't find it. Thanks.

In Kranjska Gora full parking lots, at Vršič no problem parked at the last parking. Up towards Mala Mojstrovka, then long traverse under Mojstrovka. Up to Travnik. Thought to go towards Mojstrovke but changed mind and headed towards Šite. Quite demanding traverse, have to watch not to slip. Didn't climb to Šite but somewhere on the ridge of Mali Šite finished and descended. Path to Vršič is long, think at least 5 ascents. Path was in shade because afternoon. Last slope to the pass tired me quite well.

Yesterday's traverse of Mojstrovke and Šite. Tried to stick "strictly" to the ridge the whole time. But Šite are quite wild. Or that "wildness" starts soon after Kol. Not so much technical as "varied" searching for passages velik nasmeh

But missed one key part... there where Janez a few posts above gets angry... zadrega

Return over Velika Dnina. Purely by feel. velik nasmeh

On Thursday, after a couple of years with a colleague, repeat the traverse Mojstrovke to Šite summit. Fog here and there additionally complicated finding passages, and nice views to Jalovec at the end were nothing either. Maybe next time weather cooperates... The path itself from Kol onwards is much more exposed, difficulty doesn't reach II grade if optimal passages are found. But searching them is fun since not too hard if you stick to the rule not to go too low from the ridge.

Nice and scenic if no fog. Once try to extend to Lopa to do the complete ridge to Jalovec notch. But it takes an extra hour due to deep bypass. nasmeh

mito30009. 08. 2025 11:37:37

Lopa is a bit out of my range since, as much as I read, it's quite harder.

lijaneja9. 08. 2025 11:54:33

Matjaž, I know well that you can do this!

This time a bit different. Via Hanzova to little Mojstrovka along the ridge to Šite, then climbing into the notch and back under Mojstrovke to Vršič. A real fairy tale of autumn nature.
