Before you go: Kept open most of the winter (one of the few Swiss passes that is), with occasional night closures in heavy snow
The gentle giant of Swiss passes: wide, beautifully surfaced sweepers from Romansh-speaking Disentis over the 1,915 m Passo del Lucomagno and past the Santa Maria reservoir into Italian-speaking Blenio. Fast, flowing and far quieter than the Gotthard next door.
Highlights of the Lukmanier Pass
- 1,915 m summit beside Lago di Santa Maria
- Crosses a Romansh–Italian language border
- Wide, flowing bends with little traffic
