About this pass
Gavia Pass (Italian: Passo di Gavia) (el. 2621 m.)[1] is a high mountain pass in the Italian Alps.[2] It is the tenth highest paved road in the Alps.
The pass lies in the Lombardy region and divides the province of Sondrio to the north and the province of Brescia to the south.[citation needed] The road over the pass (SS 300) connects Bormio to the northwest with Ponte di Legno to the south and is single track most on its southern section.[1]
