In this picturesque valley the two villages of Evolène and Arolla have broadly similar lengths and style of piste, and rather antiquated lifts. Arolla is a particularly lovely village, but rather remote, situated on the Haute Route ski tour between Chamonix and Zermatt. The skiing in the valley is perhaps somewhat overshadowed by the nearby and more accessible Quattre Vallées resorts, but these slopes are quiet even at weekends, the snow record is very good, the resorts are relatively inexpensive and, as a consequence, the valley has a loyal following of repeat visitors.
