Splügen pass

The Splügen Pass (Italian Passo dello Spluga) connects on a height of 2'113 m the Swiss Hinterrhein valley in the canton of Graubünden with Chiavenna in the Italian province of Sondrio and the Lake Como. It is located at 46°30.36′N 9°20.22′ECoordinates: 46°30.36′N 9°20.22′E. The Pass constitutes the watershed between the Rhine and Po rivers.

Since the construction of the tunnel through San Bernardino, the pass has lost its former importance; it is not kept open in winter.
