It is likely unwise to approach this from a legal angle first. Have you spoken with your boss and explained your situation? Perhaps negotiate to once per year, or once every other quarter?
Team building IS ESSENTIAL to high performing teams - I would advise to try and make it at least a couple times per year (besides, it could be really fun - I've done dove huts, river rafting, race cars, etc. in the past). This will show that you are a team player. Your boss should understand if you cannot make it every time, especially if you explain why you took the job with 0% travel requirements.
Maybe for you. My team is the highest performing team at our company and I've never been there once since I've worked here. Team building is essential to prove out who's willing to do whatever the leadership wants to dictate. Loyalty is built through trust and trust through hard work and keeping promises. Thats what I built my career on.

I agree. I build remote teams that have a lot of cohesion, loyalty, camraderie and performance.
Not one of us has met face to face.
