To travel to Pousada Trijunção is to take a journey into one of Brazil's major biomes that is not readily understood. The lodge with just 7 suites feels like an oasis with the gentle wooden structures of the main area sitting neatly in the environment. The suites themselves are in neutral shades again with wood featuring in architecture and fittings. Away from your room there are places to sit, relax and listen to the surrounding nature between activities.
Pousada Trijunção is situated in a protected area of the cerrado extending to some 33,000 hectares. However, surrounding lands are under threat from intensive agriculture and one of the key initiatives of the lodge is to educate in the need for conservation of the cerrado. Without question sustainability is at the heart of the lodge's ethos, there are also scientific research programmes ongoing, and it supports many local families.
This is a luxury lodge with a genuine down-to-earth authenticity. Yes, there is the haute cuisine but a stay here ensures a very personalised nature experience. You will choose your own daily activities and with over 13,000 species of plant, botanical walking trails and 1,000 species of vertebrate, many endangered including some of the large mammals, that can be seen there is enough scope for longer stays. In fact the longer you stay the more you will start to understand this biome and the importance of Pousada Trijunção.
