The Sella Carnizza , German  Carnizzasattel , is a 1086  m slm high crossing in the western Julian Alps between Resia Valley (Val Résia) and Ucceatal (Val Uccea, Učja), and connects Kaningruppe and Monti Musi .

The saddle is north of Monti Musi  ( 1864  m slm ) and south of Monte Chochiaze  ( 1511  m slm ). The former is one of the main peaks of the pre-alpine Plauris – Musi range , which stretches west – east and separates the Resiatal and Ucceatal on the one hand and the Venzonassatal and Meatal on the other. The second is one of the last higher mountains in the ridge that goes south from the Kanin on the Italian-Slovenian border and then kinks westwards at the Baba north of Uccea  (Učja) and Žaga - already at the Soča (Isonzo) .

The top of the pass is located west of Stauli Gnivizza (Carnizza), and with both valleys belongs to the municipality of Resia .

A small road leads over the pass, which is completely closed to general traffic and in the winter months. The transition is only of regional importance: the orographic exclave of Uccea, which belongs to the Isonzo region, is better connected to the important places in the foothills of the Alps, particularly Tarcento , through the Passo di Tanamea . The Resiatal leads at Resiutta into the Eisental , the lower extension of the Fella Canal .

The Parco naturale di Peralpi Giulie (Julian Prealps Natural Park) begins directly north of the pass .

  • Beech forest on the driveway from the Resia valley to the saddle
