It connectsKlosters andDavos with Davos being almost level with the pass. The pass road has a maximum grade of 10 percent and is kept open year-round.
A line of theRhaetian Railway also crosses the pass since 1890.

This road is still closed nowadays in winter and motorists are forced to use theCar shuttle train through theVereina Tunnel (or drive a long detour viaJulier pass).
