A circular tour that is rich in diversity; visit a wonderful panoramic mountain viewpoint. The detour to the "Waschgang" is extremely interesting from an historical point of view, as there are numerous relics of the gold mining industry of former times, such as galleries and the remains of walls. |

| Ascent: |
Start from Sadnig House, taking footpath no. 153, across the broad alpine pasture basins, towards the Göritzertörl (2,463 m). The view will get better and better as you approach the summit along the north-western ridge. The "WASCHGANG" variation: starting from the Göritzertörl, take the marked footpath, named the "Erzweg (ore path)" to the Kluidscharte (2,546 m). |

The descent is along the easily walkable south-eastern ridge to the Mohar cross (2,451 m), and then on to the Glocknerblick Mountain Inn (2,046 m). The round trip to Sadnig House is completed by way of a comfortable stroll along the, broad alpine pasture path. |
