Whether you're looking for a buggy to take on walking in the woods or a stroll along the high-street, an all terrain pushchair with a great maneuverability will be the perfect fit. These models are usually equipped with large wheels and a suspension system that provides smooth riding on bumpy terrain.

Many are suitable for babies and come with a seat that can be placed on a flat surface or a baby carrycot. They are also typically fitted with foam-filled tyres that are never flat to help with maintenance.

Suspension

The larger tyres can help you to tackle more challenging terrains easily Some all-terrain pushchairs even offering different tyres you can switch between to suit different conditions.

For added security Certain all-terrain pushchairs include a lockable handbrake which is more accessible to use with your free hand rather than using the traditional brake pedal that is located on the handlebars' sides. This is an excellent feature if you are inclined to climb steep hills.

There are many strollers that offer excellent off-road capabilities however they are not the best. They also have big wheels and a great suspension. They tend to be less expensive than full-on all terrain buggy models, and can work well for short walks in the countryside or trips to the park.

Many of these pushchairs are suitable for babies from birth, whether with a carrycot or a newborn-ready car seat. Be aware that these seats won't lie flat when pushing over bumps or dips. As per EU regulations, they only need to meet minimum standards of a reclining angle of around 150deg. Graco has solved this issue with its new 'comfitech seat suspension' which allows the seat recline at a flatter angle for a bit more comfort. This feature is available on the Lila XP all-terrain pushchair which can be used in conjunction with a compatible Graco infant car seat to create a 3 wheel baby strollers in 1 travel system.

Seat

There is a broad selection of all-terrain pushchairs with three wheels available that provide a fantastic off road capability. These are ideal for those who reside in the countryside or go walking on uneven, rough terrain. These are more robust and durable than a standard pushchair. They are equipped with unique features, like big puncture-proof tires to withstand the toughest surfaces.

There are many all-terrain strollers, but they don't have a reversible seat. However the Oyster 3 wheel running buggy, Venicci Tanum and egg 2, which have this option, have a great weight limit and a very high level of off-road capability. Many pushchairs are classified as all-rounders. This includes the iCandy Pear, Bugaboo Cameleon and others.

Wheels

All-terrain pushchairs are essential when you live in the countryside or take your child for regular walks over rough terrain. These models typically have larger back wheels than standard pushchairs, which makes them more adept in handling rough off-road terrain, and ensuring a smooth ride for your child. A lot of models also have a robust suspension that is puncture-proof, which means they can be used on woodland paths and forest paths, as well as gravel roads, and market town cobbles.

Certain all-terrain strollers also feature a lockable 3 wheel push chair on the front which provides extra stability when walking on rough terrain or over high kerbs. Others have swivel front wheels which allow you to manoeuvre the buggy more easily when you are changing direction or turning corners.

All-terrain strollers have air-filled tyres that are excellent for rough terrain. However, they are more prone than the solid EVA tyres used on lighter city strollers. It is therefore recommended to purchase a repair kit and spare inner tube along with your pushchair. Certain all-terrain models come with foam tyres that are less prone to punctures, but aren't as effective in absorption of shock and can feel harder to push than air-filled tyres.

The new Bugaboo Fox 5 is a great example of a child's pushchair with both foam-filled and air-filled tyres. It also has a great suspension system and large rear puncture-proof wheels that are ideal for off-road and jogging use (once your child is old enough). The model can be used even from birth with a carrycot or a lying-flat chair.

Find a model with excellent all-terrain capabilities, durable suspension and big puncture-proof wheels but designed in a more traditional pushchair design with reversible seats as well as all carrycot options.

UPPAbaby's popular Ridge all-terrain pushchair is a great example of this. It has a great suspension, a simple one-handed fold and a generous 10kg basket but also has parent-friendly features including an adjustable handlebar, a hand-operated brake on the right-hand side and a huge covered storage space. The hood can be removed and washed using cool soapy-water to prevent mildew or mould.

If you're going to be driving your all-terrain pushchair off road it's a good idea to choose air-filled tyres instead of those with grips made of rubber. They will give you an easier ride on rough terrain, and make it easier to navigate in tight spaces. If you plan to use your all-terrain pushchair to do occasional jogging, be sure the front wheel can pivot or features a quick release mechanism to ensure it is locked in place for greater stability.

To keep the fabrics in perfect condition, ensure that they can be washed by a machine. If not, a spot wash with warm soapy water and some warm water should be sufficient. The fabric can be dried thoroughly outside to avoid mold or mildew.

The majority of our three wheel all terrain pushchairs are suitable for use from the time of birth. You should search for models with a fully lying-flat seat with a reversible backrest. This allows you to use the 3 wheeler pushchair off road from birth until your child is around three years old. Some are compatible with car seat adapters if you're traveling as a three-person family. If you'd rather leave the car at home, there are all-terrain pushchairs with a fixed front wheel which are ideal for a casual stroll or jogging light, such as the Delta Special Needs all-terrain jogger from Delichon which is available in a variety of sizes for canvas and frames that can be used by adults and children.
