Where to stay in Trapiche
Trapiche is a small village in the Axarquía region, so accommodation options are limited locally. Your best bet is to stay in Vélez-Málaga or Torre del Mar, both a short drive away and well-connected to the surrounding villages.
If you prefer something closer to the coast, Nerja makes a comfortable base with plenty of hotels to choose from, and you can easily reach Trapiche for market days by car.

The Trapiche Street Market runs every Wednesday from 09:00 to 14:00. Stalls are set up outdoors and sell clothing, footwear, and local handicrafts. Cash is the standard payment method, and the market is wheelchair accessible. Because the stalls are open-air, sun protection is worth packing during the summer months.
