Path description:
From the parking lot on Vršič we go on at first badly marked path which leads on Mojstrovka and Sleme. After a short ascent, the path brings us to bigger rock on which we notice a sign Mojstrovka left. We continue in the direction of Mojstrovka (right Mojstrovka over Hanza route and Slemenova špica) on the path which is ascending diagonally through a thin larch forest. After approximately half an hour of ascent, the path brings us to extensive scree below Mojstrovka. At the spot, where the marked path on Mojstrovka gets very close to a wall we come on an unmarked crossing, where we continue sharply right. We continue the ascent on an unmarked path, which in a gentle diagonal ascent leads towards the slopes of Šitna glava. A relatively well visible footpath soon brings us into a small indistinct valley between Mala Mojstrovka and Šitna glava. Here the path turns a little to the left and it ascends a little steeper on the more and more rocky slope. When the path already gets quite close to the summit, it turns right, crosses partly overgrown scree and then it ascends on a grassy peak.
From Šitna glava we continue on the ridge at first slightly downwards after that upwards in the direction of Mojstrovka (unmarked). A poorly visible footpath on which we are ascending after good 20 minutes of walking from Šitna glava brings us to the spot, where we join the Hanza route on Mojstrovka. Ahead the orientation is easier and the path steeper and steeper. After additional few minutes, the steepness decreases and the path brings us on more plain terrain, which we bypass on the right side. Further, the path gets closer to the ridge and in front of us, we notice Mangart and Jalovec. Here the path turns slightly left and it brings us to steep part of the path. With the help of some iron spikes, and mainly without fixed safety gear we ascend on a steep upper slope of Mala Mojstrovka to its panoramic summit. In the last part of the path is in wet dangerous for slipping, and in dry path doesn't cause bigger problems.
