Some carriers for better suited for hiking than others. Check out my Can You Hike In It reviews to see what I generally suggest and look for in a hiking carrier.
But sometimes I come across a carrier that totally blows me away. Something about it makes it perfect for hiking. It can be a wrap, buckle carrier, mei tei, ring sling—any carrier type. It just has that special thing that sets it apart from the rest. When I find such a carrier, I give it my Favorite Hiking Carrier Badge and want to shout it from the roof tops!
Check out my picks and read the review to see what makes it special.
