The Spluga Pass, at an altitude of 2,117 meters, marks the border between Italy and Switzerland, connecting the high Valle Spluga, in Valchiavenna, with the upper Rhine valley. Frequented since prehistoric times, as evidenced by finds from the Stone Age at Pian dei Cavalli, the pass became a strategic transit route with the Romans, who built a paved path known as the Via Spluga. This route, partially restored and now walkable, was used for centuries until the construction, in 1821 by the Austrians, of the carriage road that still follows much of the original itinerary. Immersed among rocky peaks and spectacular landscapes, the Spluga Pass retains an ancient charm, uniting history, nature, and alpine culture in a single journey.
