Tonale Pass (Italian: Passo del Tonale) (el. 1883 m./6178 ft.) is a high mountain pass in northern Italy across the Rhaetian Alps, between Lombardy and Trentino.

It connects Valcamonica and Val di Sole. It is delimited by the Ortler Alps to the north and the Adamello range to the south.

The pass plays host to many hotels and shops for tourists in the winter, as the land around the pass is used for winter sports - mainly skiing (see Adamello Ski Raid) and snowboarding.
