L'Evêque, Alpine summit in Valais, Switzerland

L'Évêque is a summit of the Pennine Alps in the canton of Valais, reaching 3,716 metres (3,717 m in French sources). It stands south of Mont Collon, less than a kilometre north of the Italian border, and forms a double tower with the lower, double-peaked Mitre de l'Évêque (3,653 m). It overlooks the Mont Collon glacier to the west and a snowfield of the Haut Glacier d'Arolla to the east.

The mountain received its French name because its shape resembles a bishop's mitre, reflected in the two distinct peaks. This naming tradition points to how geographical features often inspired the names given to Alpine peaks.

The French name L'Évêque, meaning "the bishop", comes from the mountain's shape: the summit and the neighbouring Mitre de l'Évêque (3,653 m) form a double tower that resembles a bishop's mitre. The two peaks stand on the same ridge south of Mont Collon, above the Col Collon.

Climbing this summit requires proper alpine gear such as crampons and ice axes because the route is technically demanding. The nearest shelter for climbers is located at Rifugio Nacamuli at Col Collon.

L'Évêque and the Mitre de l'Évêque (3,653 m) form a double tower on the same ridge, with Mont Collon to the north. The summit stands less than a kilometre north of the Italian border, above the Mont Collon glacier to the west and a snowfield of the Haut Glacier d'Arolla to the east.
