3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

If you're looking for a pushchair to take on walking in the woods or a stroll on the main streets, an all terrain pushchair with excellent manoeuvrability will be the perfect fit. These models are usually equipped with large wheels and suspension that gives a smooth ride on bumpy terrain.

The majority are suitable for infants and include a seat that can be set in a flat position or a carrycot for newborns. These vehicles also have tyres that never flatten, and are usually made from foam.

Suspension

A true all terrain pushchair will have a good suspension, specifically designed to be smooth on rough terrain, helping your little one to feel comfortable and at ease. The wheels will also be large and usually be a puncture-proof type to prevent damage from sharp sticks or rocks.

Some all-terrain strollers even allow you to switch between different tyres to suit the conditions. Based on the type of terrain you want to explore, some all-terrain pushchairs have an adjustable front wheel that can be locked to ensure stability or left unlocked for greater manoeuvrability when needed.

A few all-terrain strollers include an adjustable brake handbrake that locks and is easier to reach with your free hand. This is more convenient than a traditional pedal on the handlebars. This is an excellent feature to have if you want to take on steep hills, especially with children in the seat, and a number of shopping bags tucked away under!

If you don't want to go quite as extreme as an all-terrain pushchair there are many strollers available that are very well-built, but not the ultimate off road capability with great suspension and big wheels. These are typically more affordable than the more expensive all terrain buggy options but are perfect for trips to the park with your dog or short walks around the countryside.

A lot of these pushchairs can be used from birth, either with the carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. Be aware that when pushing over bumps and dips the seats won't lie completely flat. As per EU regulations, they are required to meet minimum requirements for reclining position of about 150 degrees. 3 wheeler pushchair has gotten around this issue with its new 'comfitech in-seat suspension' that lets the seat recline at a flatter angle for more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP All-Terrain Pushchair, which can be paired with the Graco Infant Car Seat to create a 3-in-1 travel system.

Seat

There's a whole range of 3-wheel all terrain pushchairs to pick from that offer excellent off-road performance. These are perfect if you live in the countryside or walk frequently on rough, uneven terrain. They are usually more durable and sturdy than a regular pushchair, and come with features like large wheels that can withstand punctures to withstand the toughest of surfaces. They are often quite wide and are difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces or in the aisles of shops.

All-terrain buggy seat can be placed either in the direction of parents or world facing. They can grow with your child from birth to toddler. It is equipped with 'never-flat' foam tyres that give a smooth ride. It also comes with dual frame suspension, luxurious padding and a seat unit with excellent postural support. It features a recline feature and comes with an enormous hood that can be extended, integrated venting and a pocket for a smartphone.

The new Out 'n' About Nipper V5 is a great option. It's an all-terrain stroller that's an inspiration. It has great suspension and tyres with air-filled so it can be used to run once your child reaches the appropriate age. It features an adjustable 360-degree locking front wheel that allows for easy maneuverability and a quick one-handed folding. It's suitable from birth and can be used with an UPPAbaby car seat or infant car seat adapters (sold separately).

A lot of all-terrain pushchairs do not have an reversible seat, however the likes of the Oyster 3, Venicci Tinum and egg 2 do offer this option and both offer an excellent level of off-road performance, and also have an acceptable weight limit for a 2-year old. A lot of pushchairs are classified as all-rounders. They include the iCandy Pear, Bugaboo Cameleon and a few others. They can navigate rough terrain in parks or National Trust locations, but don't have the off-road capabilities as genuine all-terrain strollers.

Then there are the crossover models that are a great combination of extreme off-road and high street and have great all-terrain capability with big wheels and excellent suspension, but they're designed like a standard pushchair with reversible seats as well as fully-equipped carrycots, so they can be used everyday. Some of the top models are manufactured by brands like iCandy Easywalker and Bugaboo.

Wheels

If you reside in a rural area or frequently take your child for walks over rough terrain an all-terrain pushchair is vital. These pushchairs typically have bigger back wheels than regular pushchairs, which makes them more adept at handling bumpy off-road terrain, and ensuring the most comfortable ride for your child. Many models also have a durable suspension and are puncture-proof, which means they can be used on grass, woodland paths and forest paths, as well as gravel roads, and market town cobbles.

Certain all-terrain pushchairs come with a lockable front wheel which provides additional stability when walking on rough terrain and over high kerbs. Some models have swivel front wheels that allow you to maneuver the buggy more easily when you are changing direction or turning corners.

Most all-terrain pushchairs have air-filled tyres that provide excellent shock absorption and are perfect for rough terrain however they're more susceptible to punctures than the solid EVA tyres found on city strollers that are light, so it's worth buying a repair kit along with a spare inner tube and pump for your pushchair. Some models come with foam tyres which are less likely to puncture but may be harder to push.

The new Bugaboo Fox 5 is a great example of a child's pushchair that comes with air and foam-filled tyres, with a fantastic suspension system and large rear puncture-proof wheels which are ideal for off-road or running (once your child is old enough). The model is also suitable for children from birth and can be used with a carrycot or a lay-flat seat.

The iCandy Peach All-Terrain is another alternative. It has large tires, a single steering wheel at the front and large tyres. It's not as versatile like the other pushchairs with all-terrain capabilities on this list but it does handle hills and features a spacious one-handed fold, which is great if you're going to be using the pushchair for long walks or excursions into the countryside. It's also suitable for babies and features a large canopy that can be extended and a movable handlebar and a large, spacious basket.

Storage

For parents that would like to take their children off-road, but aren't sure about climbing Ben Nevis, there are top all-terrain pushchairs that provide the best of both worlds. Choose models that have good all-terrain capabilities, sturdy suspension, and large puncture proof wheels, but is constructed in a traditional pushchair style with reversible seating as well as full carrycot options.

UPPAbaby's popular Ridge all-terrain pushchair is a great example of this; it has a great suspension, an easy one-handed fold and a huge 10kg basket but also has features for parents that are child-friendly, like an adjustable handlebar, hand-operated brake on the right and a huge covered storage space. The hood can be removed, and washed with cool soapy-water to prevent mildew or mould.

If you intend to use your all-terrain stroller off the road choose air-filled tires rather than rubber grips. They will provide a smoother ride on uneven ground and are easier to maneuver in tight spaces. If you intend to use your all-terrain pushchair to do occasional jogging, ensure that the front wheel is able to swivel or features a quick release mechanism so it can be locked in place to provide greater stability.





It's important to check the pushchair fabrics can be machine washed to keep them in pristine condition. If not, a spot clean with warm water and a bit of soap gentle enough should be sufficient. Drying the fabric completely outdoors will also help to prevent mould and mildew from developing.

The majority of our 3 wheeled all terrain pushchairs can be used from the time of birth. It is recommended to look for models that feature a fully flat seat and an adjustable backrest. This allows you to use the pushchair from birth until your child reaches around three years of age. Some are compatible with car seat adaptors for an all-three-person family. You can leave your car at home and instead use all-terrain strollers that have a fixed wheel for light jogging or casual strolling. One such example is the Delta Special Needs All-Terrain Jogger from Delichon that comes in several frame and canvas sizes that are suitable for children as well as adults.
