Lightweight hammock (single or double)
Tree straps (eco-friendly)
Carabiners or strong clips
Optional: bug net, rainfly, underquilt
1. Find the Right Trees for Hammock Setup
Choose two sturdy, healthy trees spaced about 10 to 15 feet (3 to 4 meters) apart. Each tree should be at least 6 inches thick.
2. Wrap the Tree Straps Securely
Wrap the strap around each tree at head height. Thread one end through the loop and tighten.
3. Clip the Hammock Ends Properly
Attach the hammock to the straps using carabiners or hooks. Use adjustable loops for easy height control.
4. Set the Right Hammock Height
The hammock should hang around 18 inches (45 cm) from the ground—similar to a chair height.
5. Adjust for a 30-Degree Hang Angle
Aim for a gentle sag by setting about a 30° angle between the hammock strap and tree.
Use tree-friendly straps instead of ropes to prevent tree damage.
Inspect gear before every trip. Look for worn straps or rusty carabiners.
Hang low — don’t suspend higher than you're willing to fall (18 inches max).
Check surroundings: No dead branches above or ant mounds below.
✅ Portable hammock (nylon preferred)
✅ Tree straps with multiple loops
✅ Rustproof carabiners
Forest trails like Shivapuri, Langtang, or any Himalayan foothills
City parks and private balconies (with permission)
Hilltop cabins like Bhundole Chaur — perfect for peaceful swings
Use wide straps (2.5 cm or more) to avoid bark damage
Avoid hanging from young, dead, or weak trees
Always take your trash and gear back with you
Before heading into the mountains, practice hammock setup at home or in your nearest park. It builds confidence and helps avoid mistakes on the trail.
