Trefnant is a village and community in Denbighshire, Wales. It is located on the A525 road in the Vale of Clwyd (Dyffryn Clwyd), about halfway between St Asaph (Llanelwy) to the north and Denbigh to the south. At the 2001 Census, the community had a population of 1,409,[1] increasing to 1,581 at the 2011 Census.[2]

Trefnant railway station served the village. It closed in the 1960s.
Trefnant used to have a football team called Trefnant Village FC. They dropped out of the Clwyd League due to a cash crisis. They have a Summer league team which won the first summer title in 1927 and they last won a trophy in 2004, the shield, beating Henllan in the final.

An electoral ward in the same name exists. This ward stretches beyond the boundaries of the Community and the total population taken at the 2011 Census was 1,970.[4]
