    From Kolm-Saigurn via the Naturfreundehaus Neubau and the Rojacherhütte to the Zittelhaus on the Hoher Sonnblick. Descent as ascent either on the same day or the next day after a summit overnight stay with fantastic views of sunset and sunrise. Along the way some testimonies of historic gold mining, from which the mountain group takes its name.
