Trélex is a municipality in the district of Nyon in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland.
It is nestled at the foothills of the Jura Mountains.
The pretty local church is a distinctive landmark for visitors. Another special building is the clock tower in the center of the village.
Trélex is 5 minutes from the motorway exit for Nyon and St-Cergue. It is also accessible by train thanks to the NStCM, connecting Nyon at one end and La Cure at the other end of a windy track running up the Jura. Trains are timed to connect efficiently to Geneva and Lausanne.
A bakery, a village shop and a post office provide essential services. The village also boasts a restaurant, the Auberge de Trélex. The nearest butcher selling mostly locally-sourced products is in the village of Genolier. A big shopping center is located a few minutes away by car in Signy-Avenex, with an assortment of services (pharmacy, dry-cleaning, etc.) anchored around one of the biggest Coop supermarkets in the area.
