These models usually have large wheels and a surprisingly strong suspension to ensure smooth riding over rough terrain and bumps.<br /><br />Most are suitable for newborns and come with seats that can be positioned flat or a newborn carrycot.

The wheels are usually large and puncture-proof, preventing injury from sharp sticks or rocks.<br /><br />The larger tyres will help you tackle more difficult terrains with ease, with some all-terrain pushchairs even having additional tyres that can be switched between for different conditions. Based on the type of terrain you want to explore Some all-terrain pushchairs come with a swivel front wheel which can be locked for stability, or unlocked to allow for more manoeuvrability when needed.<br /><br />Certain all-terrain strollers have a lockable brake handbrake that is more accessible by hand. This is more convenient than the traditional pedal that is located on the handlebars. This is a great feature for those who are an avid climber.<br /><br />If you don't wish to go as extreme as an all-terrain stroller, there are many strollers on the market which offer excellent - but not perfect - off-road capability, with excellent suspension and large wheels. They are usually less expensive than the more expensive full-on all-terrain pushchairs however they are perfect for trips to the park with the dog or short country walks.<br /><br />A lot of strollers are suitable for infants and come with a carrycot or car seat that is designed for infants. Be aware, however, that when pushing over bumps and dips the seats won't lie completely flat - as per EU regulations, they have to meet minimum standards for a reclining position of about 150deg. Certain brands, such as Graco have gotten around this problem with their new "comfitech" suspension in the seat that allows the seat to recline at a slightly flatter angle to provide 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.<br /><br /><br /><br />Seat<br /><br />There's a variety of 3-wheel all terrain pushchairs to choose from that offer excellent off-road performance.

However the Oyster 3, Venicci Tanum and egg 2, which offer this option, have a great weight limit and a very excellent off-road capability. There are also many pushchairs that are classified as all-rounders like the iCandy Pear and Bugaboo Cameleon that are able to cope with rough terrain at the park or National Trust places but don't offer the off-road capabilities of true all-terrain pushchairs.<br /><br />There are also crossover models that offer a good compromise between extreme off-road and high-street.

These pushchairs typically have bigger back wheels than standard pushchairs, making them better in handling rough off-road terrains and ensuring a smooth ride for your child.

Some models have swivel front wheels that let you maneuver the buggy more easily when changing direction or turning corners.<br /><br />All-terrain pushchairs come with air-filled tyres which offer excellent shock absorption and are great for tackling rough ground but they are more susceptible to punctures than solid EVA tyres found on city strollers, which is why you should invest in an repair kit, spare inner tube and pump alongside your pushchair. Certain models come with foam tyres that are less likely to puncture, but might be more difficult to push.<br /><br />The new Bugaboo Fox 5 is a excellent example of a pushchair with both foam-filled and air-filled tyres. It also has an excellent suspension system, and large rear puncture-proof wheels which are ideal for off-road and running (once your child is old enough). <a href="https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/categories/3-wheel-pushchairs">Push Chairs &amp; Prams</a> can also be used from birth with a carrycot and a lying-flat chair.<br /><br />Another option is the iCandy Peach All-Terrain, which comes with large tyres and a single steering wheel at the front.

Choose a model that has an excellent all-terrain capability, solid suspension and large puncture-proof wheels, but built in a more traditional pushchair style, with reversible seats and all carrycot options.<br /><br />The UPPAbaby's bestselling Ridge all-terrain pushchair is an excellent 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 large covered storage space. A hood that can be removed and cleaned with cool soapy water is another helpful feature that can keep mildew and mould from growing.<br /><br />If you're going to be using your all-terrain pushchair off-road, it's worth opting for air-filled tyres instead of those with rubber grips. These will give a smoother ride on rough terrain and will be more maneuverable in tight spaces. If you intend to use your all-terrain pushchair for occasional jogging ensure that the front wheel can be swivelable or has a quick-release facility so it can lock in position for better stability.<br /><br />To keep the fabrics in good condition, it's important to ensure that they can be machine-washed. If not, a spot cleaning with warm water and a little of mild soap will suffice. Drying the fabric completely outdoors will also help to prevent mildew and mould from forming.<br /><br />The majority of our three wheel pushchairs are suitable from birth. It is recommended to look for models that feature a fully lying-flat seat with an adjustable backrest. This allows you to use the pushchair from birth until your child reaches around three years old. If you plan to travel with your family of three, there are plenty of models that are compatible with car seats thanks to built-in adaptors. If you'd like to leave the car at home, there are some all-terrain pushchairs that have fixed front wheels that are perfect for casual strolls or light jogging like the Delta Special Needs all-terrain jogger from Delichon that is available in a variety of frame and canvas sizes that can be used by adults and children.<br /><br />
