I am an avid outdoor adventure, hiking, and backpacking mom that has been using the Trail Magik since it was launched. It has made my adventures more enjoyable and helped my kids as baby's and has been even more helpful during toddlerhood. We are so honoured to have beeb able to co-brand our very own carrier with Trail Magik and Kids Who Explore. Trail Magik colour takes pride in its vibrant purple on purple color, which symbolizes a commitment to mental health awareness. We chose to feature this vibrant purple in our co-brand to highlight the importance of mental health. Our purple #Patch4APurpose represents Mental Health Awareness, aligning with our belief that connecting with the outdoors is a powerful way to navigate mental health challenges. We’re excited to share this message with everyone.

I use my Trail Magik mostly for these five main things:

• Backpacking with my kids

• Travelling with my kids

• Tandem-wearing my kids on hikes

• Piggy back without backpack

• Emergency purposes when kids refuse to walk

The Incredible Benefits of the Trail Magik Kid Carrier:

Super Lightweight

The Trail Magik is a game-changer, weighing in at 10 times lighter than typical backpack kid carriers. This means less strain on your back and more enjoyment during your hikes, allowing you to focus on the experience rather than the weight. Ideal for backpacking when you need to pack everything as a light as possible.

Builds Endurance

With the Trail Magik, you can keep your little ones on the trail longer, encouraging them to build their endurance as they explore the great outdoors. It helps your child stay engaged and adventurous, making the journey just as exciting as the destination. Endurance is always needed on backpacking and hiking trips.

Rest On-Demand

One of the standout features is the ability to provide easy on-and-off access for quick breaks. When children need a moment to rest, simply unclip them. This flexibility ensures that your little explorers can take a breather whenever they need it, enhancing their overall experience. Backpacking can use a lot energy so resting up toddler legs really helps.

Versatile Use

The Trail Magik isn’t just for hiking! This adaptable carrier is useful in a variety of settings—from the beach and farmer’s markets to navigating from the car to the chairlift. It’s even a great companion at Disneyland! Wherever your adventures take you, the Trail Magik has you covered. I have piggybacked my oldest son back to the car on many hikes with it too. We use our when backpacking and hiking mostly. We have travelled around the world with it too.

Compact and Space-Saving

When it’s time to pack up, the Trail Magik packs down small, freeing up valuable space in your backpack for other gear. This means you can carry more essentials for your family outings without feeling overloaded. I always pack a Trail Magik along on our group hikes because someone ends up needing it. It is always light and folds into the backpack easily on backpacking trips too.

Emergency Situations Ready

In unexpected situations, the lightweight and portable design of the Trail Magik can prove to be invaluable. It’s always good to be prepared, and this carrier gives you peace of mind knowing you have a reliable option for carrying your child if needed. My husband and I pack two Trail Magik carriers along on backpacking trips with our kids.

Compatible with Most Packs

The Trail Magik easily clips onto most day and backpacking packs, enhancing its versatility. You don’t have to worry about compatibility issues—just clip it on and get ready for your adventure!
