Private Lodges Away from Mass Tourism
Canyon Travel directly operates, through a Mexico corporation, the most in-depth and flexible Copper Canyon travel programs featuring private lodges without the commercial distractions of mass tourism.
The Uno Lodge, a Tarahumara owned lodge, built with government funding and operated by Canyon Travel, has the most panoramic overlook of any canyon rim lodge with the only view of the meandering river one mile below.
The company, in partnership with an El Fuerte family, built the Rio Vista Lodge overlooking the Fuerte River.
Canyon Travel built lodges near Cerocahui and Batopilas in mutually beneficial partnerships with local communities.
The lodges are comfortable, environmental friendly and offer dining rooms with scenic views. All rooms have two double beds, tiled bathrooms, and fine bed and bath linens including terry-cloth robes.

| The Uno Lodge is accessed by a private 6 mile road and it is perched on the rim of a large promontory that extends into the canyon. It is the only rim lodge with a view of the river at the canyon bottom and it has a continually changing panorama of colors |
“Actually it was such a profound experience that I have needed time to digest all we saw, did and thought. The Uno Lodge was magical with ever changing views from its windows.”

“The food at the Uno Lodge was just as good. That is the most amazing place that we have ever been. So it is hard to think about the food there."

All comfortable rooms have solar lighting, two double beds, fine bed and bath linens inluding terry-cloth robes, bathrooms with hot water and heaters.
The Uno Lodge offers some of the best hiking on the North American continent. Hikers along the rim have a captive view of the river thousands of feet below and explore caves with archaeological ruins, satellite sites of the Mogollon culture to the North. Treks to a tented base camp at the canyon bottom are outfitted with pack burros and ascend the canyon to the Dos Lodge, another remote lodge. Less active travelers walk to a nearby steam with a waterfall and sightseeing in our vans enjoying the biological richness of this unique habitat with the world's most varied species of pines and oaks.
