From the Lukmanier Pass via the Passo dell'Uomo you reach the Passo del Sole over just under 450 meters in altitude, which is very steep and can only be reached with very good legs in the saddle. But it's worth the effort, because the view and the trail down are perfect.

The Passo del Sole is located between the Valle di Santa Maria (the upper Val di Blenio) and the upper Val Piora (where Lake Ritom is located. From here you can enjoy a beautiful panorama and the fresh Alpine breeze.
