L'Evêque is a mountain of the Pennine Alps, overlooking the Col Collon in the canton of Valais, south of Mont Collon. With a height of 3,716 meters above sea level, it is one of the highest summits in the Arolla valley. Together with the not much lower double-peaked Mitre de l'Evêque (3,653 m), L'Evêque builds a very prominent double tower.
