Do you need bag transfer? Well that is a personal question & is entirely up to you & whether you want to be fully sufficient carrying your own kit or if you wish to lighten the load & just carry a day sack. We offer bag transfer on all of our trek whether you are trekking guided or self guided. Some bag transfers are included in the price (guided treks) & some are at a supplement & depending on the trek & the distance travelled will very much depend on the cost.
All our guided treks include bag transfers so the option is there whether you decide to take it or not. Bags are available on all nights apart from when staying in the mountain refuges & more remote locations.
On our self guided treks this is again optional & is charged at a supplement. Providing bag transfer on Tour du Mont Blanc is more straight forward than on the Walkers Haute Route or Traverse of the Gran Paradiso & this is reflected in the cost.
