Julier [1] ( German: Julierpass ) - pass , located in the Rethian Alps , in the Swiss canton of Graubünden ; connects the Upper Halbstein Valley ( German Oberhalbstein ) and the Upper Engadine . The postal road, constructed in 1825 , goes from Tifenkastel to the south, past the villages of Savognin (Romanesque. Savognino ) and Mulegns (Romanesque. Molins), and reaches the Bivio (Italian. Bivio , 1776 m), where it branches to the right the path through the Septimer pass to Bregaglia ; then it turns east, reaches the height of a mountain passage (2,287 m) between the peaks of Gulya (3,385 m) and Polashin (3,017 m), from where it descends to Silvaplana . Julier Pass is one of the safest; already at the time of the Romans one of the main roads passed here.
