Prams & Pushchairs / 30 June, 2026 / Christina Walter
If you’re going away this summer, a lightweight pushchair can make travelling with little ones so much easier. They’re especially useful once your child is a bit older and more independent but still needs a rest on longer days out. They really come into their own on holidays too, perfect for airports, city breaks and sightseeing thanks to their compact fold and easy portability. Of course, they’re just as handy for everyday use if you prefer something lighter and more manageable for school runs, shopping trips and general day-to-day life.
We’ve rounded up some of the best lightweight pushchairs on the market this summer.
