How about a little outing? Hiking baby carriers are an excellent option for transporting your baby on long family hikes in the mountains, but also for a stroll through town. Our selection of comfortable baby carriers, with or without underwire, awaits you.
Comfort for your baby: Make sure the carrier you choose offers adequate support for your baby's head, neck and back. Look for models with an adjustable headrest, padded shoulder and waist straps and an ergonomic seat to ensure your baby is well positioned and kept secure.
Comfort for you: Your baby's weight, combined with the weight of the carrier and hiking gear, can become very heavy. Make sure the carrier you choose is comfortable for you, with padded, adjustable shoulder and waist straps, and lumbar support to distribute the weight across your body.
Ease of use: Look for a hiking carrier that's easy to use, adjust and put on. Some models have extra features, such as pockets to store your belongings or sun visors to protect your baby from the sun.
Durability: A hiking carrier should be built to withstand tough conditions. Make sure the carrier you choose is sturdy, water-resistant and capable of safely supporting your baby's weight.
Safety: All baby back carriers on the market meet the Afnor standard, guaranteeing comfort and safety. However, this should not exempt you from vigilance. Once your baby is settled in the seat, he or she may move or try to stand up, which is why it's crucial to fasten the safety harness (often a 5-point harness) correctly. Make sure the harness fits snugly over your child, and pay close attention to his or her head, as well as to obstacles such as door frames that could cause bumps. Most seats are designed to raise your baby above your head, allowing your child to enjoy the scenery to the full. During the ride, be sure to check regularly that your baby is comfortable and that everything is running smoothly. Don't hesitate to stop and check.
