Forcola Pass

Open

Open only during the summer season.

The Forcola Pass (2,315 m) connects Upper Valtellina with the Canton of Graubünden (CH). In particular, Livigno with the Val Poschiavo and, continuing towards the Bernina Pass, with the Engadine.
The road to reach it does not have many hairpin turns, is almost entirely straight through the high pastures, and it is a pleasure to ride on it by motorcycle. 
To reach it from Bormio, it is necessary to pass through the Eira Pass and the Foscagno Pass until reaching Livigno.
