Recommendations for a hiking/ back carrier

[LavenderBlue95]

Can anybody recommend a back carrier for hiking/long walks?

My DS is 15 months old and we want to start doing our cliff walks again. We're also going on holiday in the summer so it will come in handy.

Something sturdy. Budget isn't an issue.

Thank you

Deuter Kid Comfort. We have the Kid Comfort 3 which is an older model but it was great for both of ours.

It's got an integrated sunshade and the frame is designed to stop you squashing the child if you fall.

Adjustable back fit both DH and I and we used it for loads of walks including up a couple of Munros...
