Passo delle Erbe (Würzjoch)
SP29Brixen – Bressanone to La Val – Wengen – La Valle
Quiet high Dolomites pass under the Sass de Putia north face.

The narrow road climbs steeply, reaching gradients around 16% on some ramps, beneath the Sass de Putia. The western approach is usually closed in winter, the surface is narrow with limited passing, and snow or ice can linger near the summit.
