Septimer Pass (German: "Septimerpass", Italian: "Passo del Settimo", Romansh: "Pass da Sett") (el. 2310 m.) is a high mountain pass in the canton of Graubünden in the Swiss Alps between the valleys of Bregaglia (Bergell) and Oberhalbstein (Surses).

Already in use by the Romans, during the Middle Ages the Septimer Pass was crucial to the temporal power of the Bishopric of Chur whose extensive territories until the fourteenth century included Chiavenna. The pass lost its importance after the construction of the roads of Julier and Maloja Pass.
