While you are in Evolene, do spend some time at the Evolene Ski Resort.

Try not to limit yourself to Evolene; the wider region has been blessed with plenty of cultural and scenic attractions waiting to be explored. While you are traveling in the district, make the effort to get to Anniviers. It's roughly 7 miles (11 kilometers) from Evolene and is home to the Grimentz Ski Resort and Chandolin Ski Resort. A drive to Lens is another great option. It's about 12 miles (19 kilometers) away from Evolene and where you'll find the Golf Club Crans-sur-Sierre and Crans-Montana Ski Resort.

While you are on holiday in Evolene, make a day trip to Zermatt. Approximately 14 miles (23 kilometers) away, this regional transport and shopping hub is where you'll find Schwarzsee, Sunnegga Ski Resort and Matterhorn. Zermatt has much to offer those keen to delve a little deeper. Klein Matterhorn, Breithorn and Dufourspitze are some of the other points of interest you won't want to miss.

As the sun sets on your adventures, spend what's left of your Swiss francs on last-minute keepsakes and say Au revoir / À bientôt to the characters you have met and the great places you've seen.
