HOW TO HIKE WITH A BABY | Tips for hiking with a baby or toddler from an outdoorsy mum

[@ParisMeetsKathmandu]

How awesome! We also do hiking / trekking with our toddler in Nepal (he's now 2 but we started early as well). He's clearly the happiest when outdoors. It is amazing how the outdoors can bring out the best in kids.

[@BairnandaBackpack]

I absolutely agree. Happy trekking!

Getting ready to start light walking/hiking with my five-month old boy in a few months, and this was ready helpful. Thank you!

Get my Osprey Poco Pack tomorrow cant wait to get out with my 9 month old over the weekend (so long as the weather allows)

[@wingsandwildlands]

Thanks so much for this. I work in the Scottish hills and my 4 month old comes out with me (front carrying). Working out how to trek with him comfortably in the coming months. Great advice thanks 😊

[@BairnandaBackpack]

Wow! Good luck in the coming months. Ben was pretty confident by 8 months in a back carrier. Enjoy all your outdoor adventures together! ❤️

So awesome! Hope I find a new wife someday to accompany my daughter and I on adventures like this ❤

[@jlcworld91]

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. I like the pack extra snacks tip. My son ends up throwing a lot of them on the ground haha. We always let him walk as much as he wants so he sleeps good on the way home. Cheers!

Thanks for a great video! I just stumbled across your channel and am very intrigued :) One question I just have to ask: why are the both of you wearing Packer hats? It was the first thing I noticed, as I live in Wisconsin USA, and I am just dying to know how there are Packer fans all the way in Scotland!

[@BairnandaBackpack]

Hey Erin. Hehe. Good question! We have really good friends who are from Green Bay. They work with us in Germany every year and love to give us souvenirs from Wisconsin. They are super awesome hats and we have made them our adventure hats. 😂 We visited them and the stadium a few years ago and loved our Wisconsin experience full of football, cheese and amazing nature. You live in a beautiful part of the world. ❤️

We lived in Scotland for a while, I'm an archaeologist, so we did a lot of traveling around, hiking, excavating and so on.... Watching your videos brought back wonderful memories :) thank you so much for sharing!!!! Love it!

[@BairnandaBackpack]

How cool that you lived in Scotland for a while and glad that the videos brought back some great memories for you. We love the mountains! Thanks for watching. I am loving your channel too. :)

Great Video, we started hiking with our baby this year. it's lot of fun :)

[@BairnandaBackpack]

It certainly is. Happy adventuring!

[@busymom5270]

Awwww he is soooo cute!!! Wow the scenery is so beautiful!! I want to go to Scotland now! It looks beautiful. Love that you guys do this as a family and that you are teaching your kid to love nature at such a young age. His hat is so cute!

[@BairnandaBackpack]

Thank you! Scotland is definitely beautiful and I am sure you would love it! We are just so disappointed we can't get to the mountains with all the restrictions at the moment but we will appreciate them all the more after lockdown! My great auntie knitted his hat - she's a talented lady! Thanks for popping over to my channel! ❤️

[@wyattaxton4085]

a tip: watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

[@caidencolin1364]

@Wyatt Axton yup, I've been watching on flixzone for since december myself =)

[@jojojojojojoker]

Hi! I love your video, will you share the link for that backpack that Ben’s in?thanks!!!!

[@BairnandaBackpack]

Hey Emma. Thanks for your kind comment. Here's the link - they are very expensive new but they are usually readily available second hand too! www.ospreyeurope.com/shop/gb_en/osprey-poco-plus-2020?___store=gb_en&VrX_pLy&ps_analytics=gOtrzAeTxDArMkPFd2SY%3A1649875941960

[@andidi19-x1w]

OMG packers fan here too

[@josephfaulkner7426]

Go Pack Go!!!

[@lemku3318]

Cool trip. Mine s 2 days...i wanna take us hiking for the b day but he havent practised the carrier anymore...i wonder if he d still be into it...or if i can carry it :D thought about camping but it s a lot of equipment to carry....if i take a stroller with all the equipment then where to store it if we wanna go hiking....?? I d go by train......

[@BairnandaBackpack]

How exciting! I would recommend some shorter day walks with your little one first to get used to the carrier - for both of you. Ben is two years old now and is just so heavy! It takes some training. 😂 We camp with Ben too but usually camp near the car with easy access to equipment so it would be a lot to carry of you were travelling by train. This video might be helpful for you too. Happy adventuring! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJPWgZlmn72Ujc0

[@chadthaddeusanthonymercado132]

it took me to realized that you saying "tech" was actually "tip" love the accent... so cute baby, im planning to take my little baby out too

[@BairnandaBackpack]

😂 Sorry, that's the trouble with the Scottish accent! Have an amazing time with your little one! Our little guy loves the mountains and we are making such amazing memories. Happy exploring!

[@chadthaddeusanthonymercado132]

pls dont apologize. i myself have been mountaineering/climbing for 20 years. i tookmy 18 month old on a 3 mile trail on a cheap baby carrier, i am planning to invest on a kelty or a deuter $200-$300 new. trying to find a used one, have you guys tried an overnight camping?

[@BairnandaBackpack]

@@chadthaddeusanthonymercado132 The Deuter is great. We have the Osprey that we use most often but we picked up a Deuter second hand and it is also very good. Yes, we overnight camp but haven't tackled doing that completely on the mountains yet, just at the foot of the mountain. I made a video when we were camping in summer which you may find useful? kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJPWgZlmn72Ujc0

[@gmuel87]

[@MemelyBby]

Oooo did baby get elevation sickness??
