  Colle Scravaion Location of the pass | |
The Colle Scravaion (814 m) is a mountain pass in the Province of Savona (Italy). It connects Castelvecchio di Rocca Barbena with Bardineto.
The pass stands between Monte Lingo (1103 m, West) and Rocca Barbena. Located on the main chain of the Alps it connects the basin of the Ligurian Sea (South of the pass) and the Po plain.
Its northern slopes are occupied by vast beech woods, while the southern side is warmer and drier.
The pass can be reached following the provincial road nr.52 Barreassi Calizzano. Near the saddle stands a small picnic place and, not far away from it on the southern side, an old roadman's house.
