Condado de Treviño ("County of Treviño") is a part of the province of Burgos, Castile and León, Spain, and is completely surrounded by the Basque Province of Álava. It is formed around the town of Treviño (officially named Condado de Treviño and La Puebla de Arganzón). According to the 2004 census (INE), the municipality has a population of 1,282 inhabitants.

In the 13th century, the king of Castile and the king of Navarre exchanged it for some towns in current Rioja. A population growth ensued, this explains why it is a Burgos exclave surrounded by Álava land. The Alavese capital Vitoria-Gasteiz is much nearer than Burgos. Basque irredentism claims the county (Trebiñuko Konderria in Basque) as part of Álava, but the Castile-Leon government opposes the transfer.
