The All Terrain Stroller Best For Parents

If you're a parent who wants durability and versatility, the UPPAbaby VISTA V2 is a top option. Designed to adapt as your family grows and expands, this stroller effortlessly glides over rugged terrain.

Where will you likely utilize your stroller Are there grassy parks or sandy beaches? Or rocky paths? All strollers are able to handle these types of terrain.

Baby Jogger Summit X3

The Summit X3 stroller is one of Baby Jogger’s most popular models. It is a hybrid jogger/stroller that can be used for walking or jogging on any terrain. The large air-filled tires and best all terrain pushchair-wheel suspension ensure a smooth ride for your little one. The padded seat reclines almost flat and is endorsed by the European Commission for babies*. A vented top for the seat increases airflow when the seat is reclined. This model can also accept the majority of infant car seats by using the adaptor included. It comes with a signature one-hand compact fold that is extremely quick and easy.

It's on the higher end of all terrain running strollers (like BOBs) however, it has plenty of advantages. The single-action breaks produce a reassuring clicking sound and are simple to operate, even when holding your child. The deceleration brake operated by hand is also handy, especially when you're running up a hill.

The handlebar also comes with an swivel locking mechanism that operates via remote. It allows you to quickly switch from swivel mode and back to locked pushchair for rough terrain running, without having to bend over and touch the front wheel, which could get dirty or get muddy. The lever can be turned back to swivel when you're done.

The Baby Jogger Summit X3 features an enormous UV50+ canopy, along with side air vents, and windows that can be opened for peek-aboo. The canopy offers plenty of coverage to protect your child from sun, and it can be adjusted for varying conditions of the weather. It is rated to walk at 6 months, and jog from 9 months. It is foldable using the fabric handle on seat. This is quick and easy, even when you are holding your child. It's very compact when folded and secured with a Velcro strap at the bottom.

BOB Gear Alterrain Pro

The BOB Gear Alterrain Pro is a top-rated jogging stroller that has a superior suspension that will ensure your little one enjoys a smooth ride. The company's specialized technology, called SmoothShox, absorbs bumps and jerks to minimize the transfer of that impact to your child and the parent. The system is different from other brands, such as the Revolution Flex 3 wheel all terrain buggy.0 which has an amazing adjustable suspension, but it lacks the technology found in the Alterrain Pro.

This jogger's large 16-inch rear wheels as well as the front wheels of 12 inches are designed to move across the ground with ease and offer a great deal of maneuverability. The wheels are air-filled to provide a layer of comfort for your baby while providing maximum performance and durability.

Despite its weight, the Alterrain Pro is easy to maneuver and takes a relatively short amount of time to set up. The Alterrain Pro comes with a user manual and assembly isn't required. The Alterrain Pro travel system is compatible with a range of infant car seats, including those from Britax, UPPAbaby and Chicco.

Its sunshade scored a higher score than most other sunshade models we examined, covering the knees to provide a superior shield from harmful UV rays. It also has a padded seating sling and a reclined back which can be operated by pressing down on a lever using one hand. The padded legrest extends to the footrest in plastic, adding comfort. The Alterrain Pro has a sleek and modern look to it and feels more finished than other models made by the brand. The aluminum frame tubing is rigid and has very little flex left-to right. The stitching around the basket, handlebars, and canopy are neat and tidy, and there are no bunched-up fasteners.

BOB Sport Utility

The stroller, which is available in a duallie or single model, is designed for parents who take their outdoor adventures seriously. It's designed for off-road strolling with knobby tires and high-impact polymer wheels that increase traction. The fixed front wheel provides stability for jogging and helps to navigate through difficult terrain. Its state-of-the-art adjustable suspension tackles any bumps you encounter. It also features an adjustable handlebar to fit parents of different heights and an extra storage basket to store everything you need.

BOB Sport Utility scored 6 out of 10 points, which is below only the BOB Ironman the top-rated model. Its suspension, oversized wheels, and air-filled tires make it easier to run, and its suspension system and air-filled tires are better at absorbing the shock from rough surfaces than the smaller tires on competing strollers (including our other BOB models like the Revolution Flex, and the Thule Urban Glide 2, which both scored 9).

The Sport Utility is very good in its maneuverability, but isn't as easy to turn than other models in this review. It is required to tip the handlebar in order to turn. This works well on flat surfaces, but can be difficult to navigate in tight spaces such as cafes and grocery stores.

The BOB Sport Utility comes with the same safety features as most other joggers including a 5-point harness with a hand brake as well as a foot brake. It also has the capacity to fit the majority of infant car seats using adapters that are sold separately. We found the brakes to be responsive and easy to use, but we weren't thrilled that you have to sit on a lever close to the front seat to lock the front wheel, which can be uncomfortable when walking or jogging.

Baby Trend Expedition

This stroller is an excellent option for families on a budget. It is equipped with all safety features, like five-point harnesses, a the tether strap and other security features, to ensure your children's safety on outings. The handlebar is ergonomically shaped with a large rubber grip. It's also cushioned with foam to provide the user with a comfortable experience. This makes it easier to traverse rough terrain and hills. It also comes with a huge storage bin that can hold two or more drinks, which is useful for long outings.

The Expedition is a jogger that can be used to transport infant car seats. It's a great choice for parents of small children. It's able to attach baby Trend and Graco infant car seats to the included car seat adapter and also has a lockable front swivel wheel that can unlock to jog or lock for effortless strolling. It also comes with an adjustable recline seat and a large basket for storage and footrest reflectors that improve visibility in dim light.

The Expedition isn't as effective in certain categories as our top-scoring models. It doesn't have suspension to help absorb the impact of bumps or uneven terrain, which can be uncomfortable for children who are just starting out. The metal wheels won't last longer than the ones with larger tires, making it not a good option for rough surfaces.

The canopy is tiny and isn't very effective in providing protection or coverage from the sun. Despite its flaws it is a great choice for families. Baby Trend Expedition makes a great option for parents who are on the tightest budget and want an all-terrain pushchair stroller. It also comes with other useful features, like a tray for parents with cup holders and the child's tray that has two cup holders.

Out 'n' About Nipper Sport V4

Out 'n' About, an UK brand has been awarded a number of awards for its range jogging buggies. This model is the most efficient running buggy they've ever made. It's light and easy steer, but it has big robust 16-inch wheels that tackle even the most difficult terrain. It features a fixed front wheel, so it's easy to stop straight for running, however you can also use a lever on the handlebar to release it and allow the wheel to swivel for easy strolling or hill climbing.

The suspension is fantastic especially on rocky and bumpy bridleways. The only niggle was that the brake on the handlebar isn't as flexible as we'd like, and the Nipper Sport V4 can't be used with a baby car or car seat (although it can accommodate an infant insert and comes with a carrycot that can be used for occasional night-time sleeps).

It's fairly straightforward to put together - we managed it in less than 10 minutes and found the directions extremely clear. It's necessary to put in the hood and seat liner by yourself, but we found that was easy - it simply requires a bit of patience while feeding the harness straps through the openings in the seat liner. There's a medium-sized storage pouch located at the back of the seat but it's not large enough for a changing bag.

The Out 'n' About Nipper Sport V4 is suitable for use starting at the time of birth. However, it's advised that you wait until the baby is six months old before allowing it for running. The harness is not tight enough to support a newborn comfortably, so you'll require an additional carrycot.
