3 Wheel All Terrain Pushchair

If you're looking for a pushchair for walks in the woods or strolls on the main streets, an all terrain pushchair with excellent manoeuvrability will be an ideal choice. These models are usually equipped with large wheels and a suspension system that provides an easy ride on rough terrain.

The majority of them are suitable from birth and come with a lie-flat baby seat or a newborn carrycot. These vehicles also come with tyres which never flatten, which are typically composed from foam.

Suspension

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

Some all-terrain strollers also provide the option of switching between tyres with different conditions. Certain all-terrain strollers feature an swivel wheel that can be locked to offer stability, or left unlocked to allow for greater manoeuvrability.

Certain all-terrain strollers have a lockable brake handbrake that is easy to reach with your free hand. This is more convenient than a traditional pedal on the handlebars. This is a great feature to have if you like to take on steep hills, especially with children in the seat and a lot of shopping bags tucked away underneath!

There are many strollers with decent off-road capability but aren't the most powerful. They also have large wheels and excellent suspension. These are often a bit cheaper than the more expensive all-terrain pushchairs but are perfect for trips to the park with your dog or for short walks in the country.

Many of these pushchairs are suitable for babies from birth, whether with the carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. However, be aware that when it comes to pushing over bumps and dips the seats will not lie completely flat - as per EU regulations, they have to meet minimum requirements for recline of around 150 degrees. Graco has overcome this problem by introducing a new 'comfitech in-seat suspension' which allows the seat to recline at a more rounded angle to provide a little more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP All-Terrain Pushchair, which can be combined with an appropriate Graco Infant Car Seat to create a 3-in-1 travel system.

Seat

There's a variety of 3 wheeled strollers-wheel all terrain pushchairs to pick from, offering a superb off-road capabilities.

There are a lot of all-terrain strollers, but they don't have an reversible seat. However the Oyster 3 wheel twin stroller, Venicci Tanum and egg 2, which have this option, have a great weight limit and a robust off-road ability. There are a variety of pushchairs that are classified 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.

Wheels

All-terrain pushchairs are a must if you live in a rural area or take your child on regular walks on rough terrain. These models typically have bigger back wheels than standard pushchairs, making them better at handling bumpy off-road terrains and ensuring a smooth ride for your child. Some also have a sturdy suspension and puncture-proof versions so that they're suitable for use on woodland, grass or forest paths or gravel tracks, as well as market town cobbles.

Most all-terrain pushchairs feature air-filled tyres which offer excellent shock absorption and are perfect for rough terrain, however they're more susceptible to punctures than the EVA tyres that are used on city strollers, so it's worth buying repair kits with spare tubes and a pump for your pushchair. Certain all-terrain models come with foam tyres, which are less prone to punctures but they're not as good at taking in shock and could feel harder to push than tyres filled with air.

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 which are ideal for off-road and running (once your child is old enough). This model is also suitable for children from birth and can be used with a carrycot or a lay-flat seat.
