The Albula Pass (Romansh: Pass d'Alvra, German: Albulapass) (el. 2312 m) is a Swiss mountain pass in the canton of Graubünden. It lies at the heart of the Albula Alps, on the watershed between the Albula, tributary of the Rhine and the Ova d'Alvra, tributary of the Inn. Overlooking the pass are the ranges of Piz Üertschan d Crasta Mora.
The Albula Pass is an important axis from central Graubünden to Engadin. It is traversed by a paved road from Thusis to La Punt, via Bergün. It is also traversed by the Albula Railway, although at a lower elevation through the Albula Tunnel (1820 m), from Thusis to Bever, also via Bergün.
The Albula Pass is one of the three paved road passes connecting the Engadin with the northern Grisons, the two other being the Julier Pass (   • Driving in Switzerland 11: Julier Pas...  ) and the Flüela Pass (   • Driving in Switzerland 1: Flüela Pass...  )
