3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

A pushchair that is all-terrain and offers great maneuverability will be perfect whether you are looking for a buggy for walking in the woods or for an excursion on the main street. These models typically come with large wheels and a suspension system that provides smooth riding on bumpy terrain.

The majority are suitable for babies and come with a lie-flat baby seat or a newborn carrycot. They also have foam-filled, never-flat tyres for reducing maintenance.

Suspension

A quality all-terrain pushchair has an excellent suspension that has been specifically designed to be ultra smooth and comfortable on rough terrain. This will help your child feel more relaxed and comfortable. The wheels should also be large and will usually be a puncture-proof type to prevent damage from sharp rocks or sticks.

The larger tyres can allow you to tackle more challenging terrains with ease, with some all-terrain pushchairs even having different tyres you can switch between to suit different conditions. Certain all-terrain strollers feature a swivel wheel that can be locked to give stability, or left unlocked to allow for greater manoeuvrability.

Some all-terrain strollers come with a lockable brake handbrake that is easy to reach by hand. This is superior to the traditional pedal that is located on the handlebars. This is an excellent option if you're inclined to climb steep hills.

There are many strollers with excellent off-road capabilities but aren't the most powerful. They also have big wheels and great suspension. These are typically cheaper than the more expensive all-terrain pushchairs but are perfectly suitable for trips to the dog park or short country walks.

A lot of strollers are suitable for newborns with either a carrycot or car seat that is designed for newborns. However, be aware that when pushing over bumps and dips, the seats won't lie completely flat. As per EU regulations they only have to meet the minimum requirements for reclining position of about 150deg. Certain brands, like Graco have gotten around this issue with their 'comfitech' in-seat suspension which allows the seat to recline at a flatter angle to provide a bit more comfort. It is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used in conjunction with an compatible Graco infant car seat to create a 3 wheeler pushchair- in 1 travel system.

Seat

There are a wide range of 3 wheel buggies-wheeled all-terrain pushchairs available that offer an excellent off-road capability. They are perfect if live in the countryside or walk frequently on uneven, rough terrain. They are usually more durable and sturdy than a normal pushchair, and have special features such as large wheels that are puncture-proof to deal with the toughest of surfaces. They tend to be quite wide, and may be difficult to maneuver in narrow spaces or through aisles in shops.

The seat of an all-terrain buggy may be world or parent facing and grows with your child from infant to toddler (it's suitable from 6 months). It comes with 'never flat' foam-filled tyres that give a smooth ride. It also comes with dual frame suspension, luxurious padding and an adjustable seat that provides excellent postural support. It also has a reclining feature and comes with a large extendable hood with integrated venting, as well as a pocket for a smartphone.

Another excellent choice is the new Out 'n' About Nipper V5 Pushchair for all-terrain use that is a true trailblazer with great suspension and air-filled tyres so it can be used to jog once your child is old enough. It also has a 360 swivel lockable front wheel that allows for manoeuvrability and it folds with one hand, which is easy and quick. It's suitable for babies from birth and can be used with an adaptor for UPPAbaby's infant car seat or carrycot (sold separately).

There are many all-terrain strollers that don't offer an reversible seat. However, the Oyster compact 3 wheel stroller, Venicci Tanum and egg 2, which have this option, have a good weight limit as well as a high level of off-road capability. There are also many pushchairs that are classed as all-rounders, like the iCandy Pear and Bugaboo Cameleon which are very good with rough terrain at the park or National Trust places but don't offer the off-road capabilities of genuine all-terrain pushchairs.

There are also crossover models that are an excellent compromise between extreme off road and high street. They come with big wheels, great suspension, and are designed in a pushchair-style, with the option of reversible seating as well as carrycots. The best models are manufactured by brands such as iCandy Easywalker and Bugaboo.

Wheels

All-terrain pushchairs are essential if you live in a rural area or take your child for regular walks through rough terrain. These models typically have larger back wheels than regular pushchairs, which makes them more adept at handling bumpy off-road terrain, and ensuring a smooth ride for your child. Many also come with a robust suspension and puncture-proof models so that they're suitable for use on woodland, grass or paths through the forest as well as gravel tracks and town cobbles.

Certain all-terrain strollers also feature a lockable wheel on the front which provides extra stability while walking over rough terrain or high kerbs. Some models have swivel front wheels which allow you to manoeuvre the buggy more easily when you change direction or turn corners.

All-terrain strollers have air-filled tyres which are ideal for rough terrain. However they are more prone to punctures than the solid EVA tyres that are found on light city strollers. It is therefore recommended to purchase a repair kit and spare inner tube along with your pushchair. Some all-terrain models have foam tyres, which are less prone to punctures, but aren't as effective in taking in shock and could be harder to push than air-filled tyres.

The new Bugaboo Fox 5 is a excellent example of a pushchair that comes with air and foam-filled tyres, an excellent suspension system, and large rear puncture-proof wheels that are perfect for off-road or running (once your child is old enough). It is also suitable for children from birth and can be used with a carrycot or a lie-flat chair.

Another option is the iCandy Peach All-Terrain, which comes with large tyres and only a single steering wheel in the front. It's not as flexible as other all-terrain strollers on this list however it can handle hilly terrain well and features a large, one-hand fold that is ideal for long walks in the countryside or long trips. It's suitable for children and features a large canopy that extends with an adjustable handlebar and a generously sized basket.

Storage

There are excellent all-terrain pushchairs for parents who would like to take their child off-road but don't wish to tackle Ben Nevis. They are the best of both. Find a model that has good all-terrain capabilities, sturdy suspension, and large puncture proof wheels, yet is built in a traditional pushchair design with reversible seating and carrycot options.

UPPAbaby’s popular Ridge all-terrain pushchair is an excellent example. It comes with a fantastic suspension and a single-hand fold and a generous basket that can hold up to 10kg. It also comes with numerous features that are suitable for parents, such as an adjustable handlebar as well as an operated break that can be operated by hand on the right. The hood can be removed, and washed with cool soapy-water to keep out mould and mildew.

If you plan to take your all-terrain stroller off-road, opt for air-filled tires instead of rubber grips. They will give you an easier ride on rough terrain and make it easier to navigate through tight spaces. If you are planning to use your all terrain pushchair for occasional jogging ensure that the front wheel can be swivelable or has a quick release feature to lock it into position for better stability.

It is important to verify that the fabric of your pushchair to ensure it can be machine washed to ensure they are in good condition. If not, a spot cleaning with warm soapy water and warm water should be sufficient. The fabric can be dried thoroughly outside to prevent mold or mildew.

The majority of our three 3 wheel compact stroller all terrain pushchairs are suitable for use from the moment of birth. You should search for models with a fully lying-flat seat with reversible backrest. This will allow you to use the pushchair from the time your baby is born until the time your child is around three years old. Many are compatible with car seat adaptors if you're traveling as a family of three wheel pushchairs. If you'd like to leave the car at home, there are all-terrain pushchairs that have fixed front wheels that are perfect for casual strolls or light jogging, such as the Delta Special Needs all-terrain jogger from Delichon which is available in a range of sizes for canvas and frames that can be used by adults and children.
