Camping Hammocks FAQs

How to hang a camping hammock?

The camping hammock you purchase should be long enough to stretch out on without too much sagging. You will require a hanging location with adequate distance between supports and height above ground level and the space you need will be determined by the size of your chosen hammock. When hanging your hammock, you will need to make allowance for sag - otherwise you're just hanging up a taut piece of cloth. Establish a hanging location with a little extra length so you can adjust the tension using hanging straps, hooks or springs (which are all available at Anaconda). If you have found a hammock hanging location with sufficient height and distance, you are good to go. Alternatively, you may prefer the freestanding hammock approach. Here are a few popular hammock-hanging methods:

• Hanging An Outdoor Hammock With Straps
  Attaching your camping hammock to trees or posts using hammock straps is easy. Simply link the strap to the hammock end-loop and wrap the strap around the tree. Straps can be adjusted for tension, allowing you to get as comfortable as you wish. If you want permanent hammock solutions, then hanging hardware is the answer. Every camper and household should have strong rope available for odd jobs that arise. Hanging a hammock with strong rope is a simple and effective low-tech solution.
• Using A Hammock Stand
  A hammock stand is an easy solution for hanging a hammock inside or outdoors. Hammocks can be purchased with a stand, or the stand can be purchased separately for adapting your present hammock using s-hooks and connectors.

How to get in a hammock?

Getting into a hammock for the first time may be daunting, but rest assured it is an easy process. To get in a hammock, approach the hammock with your back towards it, then hold the edge of the hammock down and slowly sit in the middle. Once in the hammock, you can reposition your legs and lie down in the hammock.

How to clean a hammock?

Regularly shake out your hammock to remove any loose debris. Most hammocks can also be hand washed, use mild detergent and cold water, then hang to dry. Follow the directions on your specific hammock for the best results.
