Good Company: Pousada Trijunção offers luxury accommodations to travelers looking for remoteness and exploration in the Cerrado ecoregion
What most people know about Brazil tends to be limited, either to the iconic beaches of Rio de Janeiro or the vast jungles of the Amazon. The massive jungle is one of the world’s most important ecological areas due to its thick carbon-capturing forest, the destruction of which is a worrisome contribution to climate change.
Pousada Trijunção is one of three properties owned by a group of investors led by Brazilian media magnate Jose Roberto Marinho. It’s reachable by a 248-mile drive from the country’s capital, Brasilia, or by a plane ride. That travel distance comes with a substantial reward, though, in the form of solitude in a landscape found nowhere else in Brazil and one often overlooked by its own citizens.
“The idea is to introduce people to this place and show how important it is to the environment as a whole,” Sampaio says.
