A 2,108m high pass in the St. Gotthard massif in central Switzerland. It is called the Saint Gothard Pass in French. It has been a major route over the Alps connecting Northern Europe and Italy since ancient times. The pass road becomes impassable due to snowfall between November and May. For this reason, the St. Gotthard Tunnel for railways was opened in 1882 between Göschenen in the north and Airolo in the south. 100 years later, in 1980, the world's longest automobile tunnel was completed, and the pass is now visited mainly by tourists.

スイスの中央部ザンクト・ゴットハルト山塊にある標高2108mの峠。フランス語ではサン・ゴタールSaint Gothard峠と呼ばれる。古い時代から北ヨーロッパとイタリアを結ぶアルプス越えの幹線ルートである。峠道は11~5月の間積雪で通行が不可能となる。このため1882年に北側のゲシェネンと南側のアイロロ間に鉄道用ザンクト・ゴットハルト・トンネルが開かれた。その後100年を経て1980年には世界最長の自動車用トンネルが完成し,峠を訪れる者はおもに観光客だけとなった。
