Hiking carriers are a great way to introduce your little one to the magic of exploring the outdoors, as well as to ensure that you keep getting outside after you become a parent. We carried our infant and toddler sidekicks in 10 different carriers across almost 100 miles before concluding that the Deuter Kid Comfort is the pack most likely to keep both parents and kids feeling like happy campers. The Kid Comfort’s well-padded shoulder straps and hip belt allowed it to support weight more comfortably than any other pack we tested, and its easy-access pockets kept snacks and other essentials handy.

Deuter Kid Comfort, the best hiking baby carrier

Deuter Kid Comfort

The best hiking baby carrier
Cushy straps and a waist belt that fits well make this the most comfortable carrier we tested. We also like its parent- and kid-friendly features, including easy-access pockets and a sunshade.
We recommend
Osprey Poco, less cushy, but the roomiest seat

Osprey Poco

Less cushy, but the roomiest seat
This carrier has the roomiest seat of any carrier we tried, plus nearly all the comfort features we could want, including a great sunshade. But we wish it had more padding on the hip belt.
Another good choice
Deuter Kid Comfort Active SL, the lightest lift

Deuter Kid Comfort Active SL

The lightest lift
This carrier, which is designed specifically for people with a shorter torso, is the lightest model we tested. But its stripped-down design sacrifices some features found on our other picks, such as a sunshade.
