Open - Winter closure from 27 November 2026
Open only during the summer season.
The Forcola Pass (2,315 m) connects Alta Valtellina with the Canton of Graubünden (CH). In particular, Livigno with Val Poschiavo and, continuing towards the Bernina Pass, with Engadin.
The road to reach it has very few hairpin bends, is almost entirely straight through the mountain pastures and is a pleasure to ride by motorbike.
To reach it from Bormio, you need to travel through Eira Pass and the Foscagno Pass up to Livigno.
