Kerenzerberg Pass (el. 743 m.) is a mountain pass in the Alps in the canton of Glarus in Switzerland.

It connects Mollis and Mühlehorn above the Walensee.

The pass road was built in 1848 and has a maximum grade of 10 percent. Two tunnels have been dug under the pass, a road tunnel for the A-3 Autobahn and a rail tunnel for the Federal Railway main line Zürich-Chur.

The area is known for both summer and winter sport.
