Wurzen Pass (el. 1110 m.) is a high mountain pass in the Alps, located on the border between Austria and Slovenia in the Bundesland of Kärnten (or Carinthia).
It connects Villach in Kärnten and Ljubljana.
Until the opening of the Karawanken Tunnel in 1994, the pass road was one of the main arteries for traffic between Austria and Slovenia. It is very curvy and has a maximum grade of 18 percent.
