Triebener Tauern Pass (el. 1274 m.) is a high mountain pass in the Austrian Alps in the Bundesland of Styria.

It crosses the Niedere Tauern and connects the Mur River valley near Judenburg with the Palten River valley near Trieben.

The north side of the pass used to have a maximum grade of 18 percent. Because of this steep grade, the pass road underwent a major reconstruction from june 2006 to october 2008. This reconstruction reduced the maximum grade to 10 percent.
