Hammocks

Lightweight, flexible and relaxing – hammocks for nature and adventure

If you want to combine mobility, comfort, and experiencing nature while trekking, bikepacking, or camping, a hammock is often the best solution. With a hammock, you can comfortably relax or even sleep between trees—without a campsite or level ground. At Eddy's Adventure, you can easily rent or borrow hammocks and test them extensively. Thanks to our "rent first, buy if you like it" policy, you can find out risk-free which model truly suits you, your body, and your adventure.

Why hammocks are a real alternative to tents

Hammocks save weight and pack volume. They solve many of the problems associated with tents: no heavy poles, no complicated setup procedures, no hard or uneven ground. Instead, you use trees or stable anchor points, need only two suspension points, and have a comfortable place to sleep in minutes. They are ideal for microadventures, bikepacking trips, trekking weekends, or spontaneous outdoor experiences because they are extremely flexible and quick to set up.

Which hammocks you can find at Eddy's Adventure

If you want to travel light, the Lesovik SUL hammock is perfect. Weighing just 175g and with a compact pack size, it's one of the lightest outdoor hammocks and ideal for solo trekking, bikepacking, or minimalist camping.

For more comfort and more robust use, the EXPED Scout Hammock Combi Extreme is available — a hammock that is also suitable for longer overnight stays and impresses with its comfort and stability.

If you value a classic camping setup, the Lesovik DUCH hammock (300 × 150 cm) is ideal — it offers ample lying space and is stable enough for relaxing nights outdoors.

For protection against mosquitoes or insects and comfortable sleeping on summer nights, the Lesovik DRAKA hammock with mosquito net can be just the thing.

This gives you a selection ranging from lightweight travel hammocks to comfortable overnight models — depending on the tour, your wishes and area of ​​use.

Things to consider when hammock camping

When sleeping outdoors, the combination of hammock, insulation, and protection is especially important. A hammock alone is rarely sufficient for cold or damp nights. Therefore, it's worth packing an additional sleeping mat, quilt, or sleeping bag for insulation.

A tarp or rain cover can be essential in rain or wind — it makes your hammock weatherproof and protects your sleeping place from wetness and wind chill.

When hanging your hammock, make sure you use stable anchor points (e.g., sturdy trees), wide straps to protect the tree, and the correct hanging height and tension. A hammock that's too taut will be uncomfortable, while one that's too loose can be unsafe. A gentle sag and a diagonal lying position are ideal.

Why you should rent hammocks at Eddy's Adventure

A hammock is often a good, but situation-dependent choice—depending on the trip, weather, and terrain. Renting lets you easily test different models: ultralight for minimalist trips, comfortable for longer journeys, or with a mosquito net for summer nights. You only pay for the time you need the hammock, instead of making an upfront investment. All rental products are inspected, cleaned, and ready to use. Thanks to the "rent first, buy if you like it" option, you can purchase it later if you're convinced—flexible, sustainable, and budget-friendly.
