Scenic peak above Vršič Pass

Half-Day Tour, start from Vršič Pass, pick-up in Kranjska Gora or Bled

Rising to 2,000 meters, this beloved Slovenian peak offers a striking contrast depending on the vantage point—its vertical north face stands in stark opposition to the gentler southern slopes. The southern route, less technical, provides a rewarding ascent perfect for alpine beginners or those seeking a challenging introduction to high-mountain trekking. A fantastic first foray into the world of Alpine giants, this hike leads above the tree line, where stunning panoramas unfold at every turn. From the summit, the sweeping views stretch across the Julian Alps to Italy and Austria, leaving all who reach the top in awe of the vast, untamed beauty that surrounds them.

Itinerary

After we meet at the Vršič mountain pass, we head towards the east talus slopes of Mala Mojstrovka. The ascent lasts roughly for a little over 2 hours and first winds through short shrub and scree terrain, which makes it a bit harder to progress up but is so much more fun coming then back down. Once we're past a short ravine, we move to the south side of the mountain and follow a fairly easy trail with a few more demanding secured spots. The ascent can also be combined with an additional ascent of the bigger of the two peaks of Mojstrovka, Velika Mojstrovka, highly recommended to everyone hiking Mala Mojstrovka. The descent follows the same trail as coming up, but usually lasts much less as we can take a huge shortcut over the scree slope. Yee-haw!
