The San Fermo pass or San Clemente pass is a pass in the Ligurian Apennines located at 1,129 m near the San Fermo mountain along the road that connects the Vobbia valley with the Borbera valley, both tributaries of the Scrivia stream.

The San Fermo Pass (also called San Clemente) is a splendid mountain pass that marks the border between Liguria and Piedmont, connecting the Vobbia Valley (Genoa) with the Borbera Valley (Alessandria) at approximately 1,160 meters above sea level.

It is not just a transit point, but a place rich in history and tradition. Its importance dates back to the Early Middle Ages, when the Abbey of San Clemente stood here, and the area is even mentioned in a document from Louis II in 869 AD. Over the centuries, the pass has been a vital link for trade and transit between the Genoese hinterland and the Piedmont valleys.

Today, the pass is dominated by the Chapel of San Fermo and offers an exceptional panorama: from its summit, the view extends over all the surrounding valleys and, on clear days, reaches as far as the Ligurian Riviera and the Alps.
