I'll keep it in mind.

Thanks. In my version (Gnus v5.11) 'v' is not found, but I should try
info more often as Google.

The first key binding I defined is:
    (define-key gnus-group-mode-map (kbd "v f")
      (lambda ()
        (interactive)
        (beginning-of-buffer)
        (gnus-group-next-unread-group 1)))

So with 'v f' I go to the first unread group.
