3 wheeled buggies wheel all terrain pushchair (https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/products/baby-jogger-all-terrain-jogging-stroller-city-royalty)

Whether you're looking for a buggy for walking in the woods or a stroll on the high street, a pushchair that is all-terrain with excellent manoeuvrability will be the perfect fit. These models typically have large wheels and a surprisingly strong suspension to ensure smooth riding over bumps and rough ground.

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

Suspension

A truly all-terrain pushchair will have a good suspension, specifically designed to be smooth on rough terrain and help your child to be comfortable and calm. The wheels are usually large and puncture-proof to protect against injury from sharp rocks or sharp sticks.

The larger tyres will also enable you tackle more difficult terrains with ease Some all-terrain pushchairs even offering different tyres you can switch between for different conditions. Some all-terrain strollers have an swivel wheel which can be locked to provide stability, or left unlocked to allow for greater manoeuvrability.

A few all-terrain strollers include an adjustable brake handbrake that locks and is easy to reach with your free hand. This is superior to a traditional pedal on the handlebars. This is an excellent feature for those who are inclined to climb steep hills.

There are many strollers that have good off-road capability, but not the ultimate. They also have large wheels and great suspension. They tend to be cheaper than full-on all-terrain buggy options and will still be suitable for short country walks or trips to the park.

Many of these strollers are suitable for infants with either a carrycot or car seat that is ready for newborns. Be aware that these seats won't lie flat when pushing over bumps or dips. As per EU regulations, they only have to meet minimum requirements of an incline of about 150deg. Certain brands, like Graco, have overcome this problem with their new "comfitech" suspension in the seat that allows the seat to recline at a flatter angle for a bit 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 three-in-one travel system.

Seat

There is a broad selection of 3-wheeled all-terrain pushchairs available that provide a fantastic off road capability. They are perfect if live on the countryside or regularly walk on rough, uneven terrain. They are often more robust and sturdy than a normal pushchair, and have special features like large wheels that are puncture-proof to deal with the toughest of surfaces. They're usually quite wide, so may be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces or narrow aisles in shops.

The seat on an all-terrain buggy can either be a parent or world facing and will grow with your child from infant to toddler (it's suitable for children as young as 6 months). It comes with 'never flat' foam-filled tires that offer a comfortable ride. It also comes with dual frame suspension luxurious padding and a seat unit with excellent postural support. It features a recline feature, as well as an extended hood that is large and integrated venting as well as pockets for smartphones.

The brand new Out 'n' About Nipper V5 is a great option. It's an all-terrain stroller that is an inspiration. It comes with excellent suspension and air-filled tyres so it can be used to jog once your child is of the right age. It also features a 360 swivel lockable front wheel to allow for maneuverability, and an easy fold that's easy and quick. It's suitable for babies for babies from birth and is compatible with an adaptor for UPPAbaby's infant car seat or carrycot (sold separately).

Many all-terrain pushchairs don't have a reversible seat, but the models like the Oyster 3, Venicci Tinum and egg 2 do offer this option and both offer a very good level of off-road capability and a decent weight limit for a 2 year old. There are also many pushchairs that are classified as all-rounders, like the iCandy Pear and Bugaboo Cameleon that are able to cope with the rough terrain found in park or National Trust places but don't offer the off-road performance of all-terrain pushchairs.

There are also crossover models that offer a good compromise between extreme off-road and high-street. They come with big wheels, excellent suspension, and are designed in a pushchair style, with the option of reversible seating as well as carrycots. Brands like iCandy, Easywalker and Bugaboo have produced some excellent models to look at.

Wheels

If you reside in a rural area or frequently take your child for walks over rough terrain, an all-terrain pushchair is essential. These models have bigger wheels that are mounted on the back than traditional pushchairs, which enables them to deal with bumpy terrain better and provide an easier ride for your child. A lot of models also have a sturdy suspension and puncture-proof so they can be used on grass, woodland paths or forest paths, gravel roads and market town cobbles.

Certain all-terrain pushchairs have an adjustable front wheel that gives extra stability when walking over rough terrain and over high kerbs. Some have swivel wheels on the front, which allow you to move the buggy more easily when you need to change direction or turn corners.

Most all-terrain pushchairs feature air-filled tyres that provide excellent shock absorption and are perfect for rough terrain, but they're more prone to punctures than the EVA tyres that are used on lightweight city strollers so it's worth buying a repair kit along with a spare inner tube and pump alongside your pushchair. Certain models have foam tyres which are less prone to puncture but might be more difficult to push.

The brand new Bugaboo Fox 5 pushchair is an excellent model of a stroller that has both foam and air filled tyres. It also has a great suspension and large rear wheels that are puncture proof and suitable for off-road use or jogging (once your child reaches the appropriate age). The model can also be used from birth with a carrycot and a lying-flat chair.

Another option is the iCandy Peach All-Terrain, which comes with large tyres and a single steering wheel at the front. It's not as versatile as the other pushchairs with all-terrain capabilities on this list, but it can cope well with the terrain that is hilly and has an ample, one-handed fold which is perfect if you're planning to be using the pushchair for long walks or trips into the countryside. It is suitable for children and comes with a large, extendable canopy, an adjustable handlebar, and a large, spacious basket.

Storage

For parents that would like to take their little one off-road, but don't want to commit to tackling Ben Nevis, there are some excellent all terrain pushchairs that give you the best of both worlds. Find a model with excellent all-terrain capabilities, durable suspension and big puncture-proof wheels. However, they are designed in a more traditional pushchair style, with reversible seats and all carrycot options.

UPPAbaby’s popular Ridge all terrain pushchair is a good model. It offers excellent suspension and a single-hand fold and a spacious basket that can carry up to 10 kg. But it also has many features that are child-friendly, like an adjustable handlebar as well as an operator-operated break on the right. The hood can be removed and washed with cool soapy-water to keep out mould and mildew.

If you're going to be using your all-terrain pushchair off-road it's best to opt for air-filled tyres instead of ones with rubber grips. These will provide an easier ride on rough terrain and will make it easier to navigate in tight spaces. If you are planning to use your all-terrain pushchair to jog occasionally, ensure that the front wheel can be swivelable or has a quick-release facility so it can lock in place for greater stability.

To keep the fabrics in pristine condition, it's important to ensure that they are machine-washed. If not, spot cleaning with warm water and a bit of mild soap will suffice. Drying the fabric completely outdoors will also help to prevent mould and mildew from developing.

The majority of our three wheel pushchairs can be used from the moment of birth. You should search for models that feature a fully flat seat and reversible backrest. This will allow you to use the pushchair from the moment your baby is born until your child reaches three years old. If you plan to travel as a family of three, there are plenty of models that are compatible with car seats due to the built-in adaptors. You can leave your car at home and utilize all-terrain strollers with a fixed wheel for light jogging or casual strolling. One such example is the Delta Special Needs All-Terrain Jogger from Delichon, which comes in various sizes of canvas and frame that can be used by children and adults.
