Location and area
The mountain rises at the head of the Hüttwinkltal valley, the upper part of the Raurisertal, on the Alpine divide. It is a mighty massif with a characteristic rock pyramid on the summit block and a great North Face above Kolm-Saigurn. The highest summit of the Goldberg Group is not the Hoher Sonnblick, however, but the 3,254-metre-high Hocharn to the north.
On the steep summit, at a height of 3,106 metres, is a meteorological observatory, the Sonnblick Observatory, and an Alpine refuge hut, the Zittelhaus (also written Zittlhaus). At a height of 2,718 metres is the Rojacher Hut and at 2,175 metres is the Schutzhaus Neubau. Both huts are managed during the summer months.
On 1 January 1905, a temperature of −37.4 °C (−35.3 °F) was recorded at the summit, the lowest temperature recorded in Austria at that time.[1]
In the area of the Sonnblick there are historical gold mines, which gave their name to the mountain range around the Sonnblick, the Goldberg Group. On the mountainsides still stand the ruins of the gold diggings, Kulm-Saigurn is an ancient mountain mining settlement. At the foot of the Sonnblick you can still successfully pan for gold – albeit less productively than the historical mines which played a key role in the wealth of the Prince-Archbishopric of Salzburg.
Routes
- Kolm-Saigurn – Neubau – Rojacher Hütte – Hoher Sonnblick, 4–5 hrs, 1,500 metres climb
- Heiligenblut (1,300 m above sea level (AA)) – Fleißkehre – Gasthof "Alter Pocher" (1,800 m above sea level (AA), end of the public road) – Zirmsee (2,550 m above sea level (AA)) – Kleinfleißkees – Hoher Sonnblick, 5–6 h (4–5 h ab „Alter Pocher“), 1,800 metres climb. No refuge huts between "Alter Pocher" and the Sonnblick.
