Operating from Bearsden, Scotland, Pack Trekker offers a Complete Package option that combines luggage transport between overnight stops with secure parking and return transport to a vehicle at the end of the walk. Transport trips run from Fort William and include scenic stops at Glen Coe and Loch Lomond. Vehicles accommodate up to eight passengers for transfers and return journeys.
Pack Trekker’s core services include Full Route Baggage Transfer, Part Route Baggage Transfer (up to three drops), Transport to the Start, Return Transport, and The Complete Package. Each service is designed to remove luggage and parking worries so walkers can concentrate on the trail, views and daily stages.
