The Col de Crête Sèche (French: "dry ridge pass") is a mountain pass in the Alps, located between Switzerland and Italy.
It lies at a height of 2,896 metres (9,501 ft) above sea level, between the massifs of Mont Gelé and Bec d'Epicoune, in the Pennine Alps.
The Col de Crête Sèche is the second-lowest pass between the valleys of Bagnes and Valpelline, after the Fenêtre de Durand which lies about one hundred metres lower west of Mont Gelé.
On the latter side, at an elevation of 2,385 metres (7,825 ft), is the Refuge Crête Sèche (Italian Alpine Club).
