The Hennessy Hammock is the most innovative solution to lightweight,comfortable camping on the planet.
At last, you will never
need to find a level camp site. No more roots, rocks or puddles coming through the floor of your tent. No more aching muscles and stiff joints from sleeping on the hard ground. And no more carrying a heavy tent.
Hennessy Hammocks have a size and weight for every purpose, a complete line of specialty hammocks, including jungle hammocks, winter hammocks, and hammock accessories. All Hennessy Hammocks include attached mosquito netting, detachable rain fly, support ropes, tree huggers to protect the of the bark of trees, and stuff sack with set up Instructions on back. To find the right hammock for you, see our hammock comparison chart and info pages about simple set up tips and staying warm and comfortable in your hammock.
Hennessy Hammocks are most comfortable when suspended off the ground as a bugproof enclosed bed or folded into a chair or lounger for relaxing around camp. When there are no trees or other supports, they are superior to a bivy sack when set up on the ground as a tent.
