I know in the US most of the high-liquidity commodities are traded on CME, CBOT and NYMEX, but what are the equivalents in Europe? I know Eurex is one that has a range of highly traded indices and commodities, but are there any others?

I'm specifically after one that would offer high liquidity and opportunity for spread trading.

You are looking for an exchange that is liquid, yet you are going to trade in a product that off the exchange and depends on the liquidity provider. If the exchange is liquid, it does not mean that it's equivalent on the liquidity provider would do the same for you.

ICE.
Like the CME Group (who own CME, CBOT, NYMEX etc), ICE have bought up many futures exchanges (ICE, NYBOT, IPE, LIFFE as well of course as the NYSE).
As such on ICE Futures Europe you can trade the old IPE products specifically Brent & Gasoil (among others) which are highly liquid contracts.

Moscow has nearly the same volume as Eurex and their mainstays are energy and FX.

Moscow is great ... but its impossible ( or extremally risky) to trade there becouse no one offer's them

There is also market for corn and wheat on Euronext Paris - but volatility there is extremally low,its just like trading GE futures with 10 ticks per day...

I apologize, I read by error "spread betting" not "spread trading" as you specified, hence my answer. Sorry.
The guys above gave you the right facts.

The Eurex exchange is one of the most popular commodity futures trading exchanges in the world.

I don't think so, they are strong on Equity and FI derivatives but they trade almost nothing in commodities....

Can you list some of their LIQUID commodity futures?
