Backcountry Expeditions
Backcountry Chapters are the nights beyond the Lodge and the days that go long. Built for guests who want to stay out longer and diver deeper into the Reserve. Optional but meaningful pieces of a safari where guides handle the route and chefs meet you where you land.

The Lodge is home to 16 guest rooms, a dining room, a great room with a stone fireplace and spaces to gather and settle in.

With spaces for gaming, quiet corners, and direct access to the wellness cottage, it’s the heart of a stay at Trinchera. Parlor Rooms offer added space and connection for small groups and families.
