☑️ For the Inca Jungle Trek, you really only need to pack a light backpack. There isn’t a dedicated baggage transfer service, but this usually isn’t an issue since the route is designed to be quite manageable.

Here’s why packing light is an advantage:

🔹Supported Activities: During the cycling segments, your transport will follow closely behind you. For zip-lining and rafting, your backpack will be stored in a secure location while you enjoy the activity.

🔹Hiking Sections Only: You’ll only need to carry your backpack during the actual hiking portions of the trek.

If you strongly prefer not to carry anything at all, you can arrange an additional baggage transfer service with your guide for an extra cost. However, most travelers find this rarely necessary, given the nature of the activities and the route.
