This town, located at an altitude of 1,476 m on the southwestern slopes of Mulhacén, is not exactly the highest town in Spain as some claim, but its municipal area is, since the Mulhacén peak is located there. It is for this reason that some of its agricultural lands are also among the highest in Europe. Its name comes from the Latin "velex" which means 'valley'.

Hiking
Trevélez is one of the highest mountain villages in Spain and is particularly famous for its air-dried Serrano ham. Approximately 1 million knuckles are dried here every year by the dry, cool winds.
A visit to one of the numerous dry stores is worthwhile.
