The San Bernardino Pass with its top at 2066m, close to the beautiful mountain lake Moesola, connects the Central Swiss Alps, where German is spoken mainly, with the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland. That is, the Posterior Rhine (Hinterrhein) in the north, in Grisons, to the Misox valley, also in Grisons, in the south. For eastern Switzerland, the Bernardino route is an alternative to the Gotthard Pass, as a route to Ticino. Since 1770, the road has been open to wheeled traffic and it was only between 1821 and 1832 that it was improved to ensure trade between the North and the South. In 1967, the San Bernardino Highway Tunnel on the parallel highway opened and drastically reduced traffic through the pass. It is certainly one of the most picturesque and spectacular ways to cross the Alps. San Bernardino is a charming village located in the Canton of Graub"unden in Switzerland. The village is known for its stunning scenery, majestic mountains and pleasant climate. Famous for its mineral springs, which have been used for therapeutic purposes since the Middle Ages. A small resort, not far from the top of the pass of the same name, with its many trekking and winter sports opportunities.

Ou seja, o Reno Posterior, (Hinterrhein) no norte, em Gris~oes, ao vale Misox, tamb'em em Gris~oes, no sul. Para a Su'ica oriental, a rota de Bernardino 'e uma alternativa ao Passo de Gotthard, como trajeto para o Ticino. Desde 1770 que a estrada est'a aberta ao tr'afego de rodas e s'o entre 1821 e 1832 foi melhorada para garantir o com'ercio entre o Norte e o Sul. Em 1967, o t'unel rodovi'ario de San Bernardino na estrada paralela foi inaugurado e reduziu drasticamente o tr'afego na passagem. 'E, certamente, uma das formas mais pitorescas e espetaculares de atravessar os Alpes. San Bernardino 'e uma simp'atica vila situada no Cant~ao dos Gris~oes na Su'ica. A vila 'e conhecida por suas paisagens deslumbrantes, montanhas majestosas e clima agrad'avel. Famosa pelas suas fontes minerais, que t^em sido utilizadas para fins terap^euticos desde a Idade M'edia. Um pequeno resort, n~ao muito longe do topo do passo com o mesmo nome, com suas muitas oportunidades de trekking e desportos de inverno.
