Trail Kitchens American Made Overland Kitchens & Storage, Van Conversion Kits, & Complete Adventure Vehicle Builds, Slide outs, Custom Van Accessories, FULL VAN builds

Over several decades of adventuring in the western US and abroad it became apparent to the founders that there was an unfulfilled need for an integrated solution for cooking, cleaning up dishes and cookware, filtering water and showering outdoors. Most of the critical parts (Stoves, tables, water filtration, portable showers etc.) were obviously available but always as standalone products or built

into a recreational vehicle. When we embarked on this journey we started with a personal quest for simplifying the preparation of kitchen gear for a road trip and then transitioning that gear from the vehicle to the back-country or the river. Our goal is to provide the ultimate portable kitchen and clean up workstations that organize your most essential gear into the most compact package possible. Whether you adventure outdoors using a car, truck, SUV, 4X4 , RV, canoe, raft or pack animal there is a place for the space efficient workstation designs from Trail Kitchens.

At Trail Koncepts, we believe a van build should do more than just look good — it should perform on the road and last for years of real travel.
Every build that comes through our shop is designed with engineering, durability, and efficiency in mind. From solid mounting systems that eliminate rattles, to smart layouts that help maintain great gas mileage, we focus on the details that make a difference when you’re putting real miles on your rig.
We also design our interiors to maximize storage, functionality, and modular accessories, so your van works for your lifestyle — whether that’s weekend trips or full-time adventure.
The goal is simple:
A van that drives tight, stays quiet, performs well, and is built for the long haul.
If you're thinking about a build, upgrades, or improving your current setup, we’d love to talk.

Another new van build hits the road 🚐

to make long-distance builds simple and predictable.

From Empty Shell to Adventure-Ready 🚐
Every great van build starts the same way — an empty shell.
➡️ First: a bare van, ready for a plan
➡️ Next: insulation, wiring, and the systems you don’t see but rely on every day
➡️ Then: cabinetry and layout install as the vision comes to life
➡️ Finally: a finished interior, dialed and ready for adventure
This step-by-step process is how we build every Trail Koncepts van. Thoughtful design, proven systems, and craftsmanship you can trust — from start to finish.
📐 Tip: we will help you find a van shell, or if you have one all good!.
If you’re dreaming of turning an empty van into a fully integrated adventure rig, we’d love to help.
