Once you have decided on a model, it is time to set up your hammock tent. At the beginning, it can take a little longer to set up, but with a little practice you can do it quickly and easily within a few minutes. To give you a first insight into the assembly of a hammock tent, you will find the most important steps summarised here:
Find a suitable place: First lay the tent canvas on the ground and measure the distance and angle between the trees.
Pitch the tree tent: Tighten the straps around your trees. To do this, place a tensioning strap around your tree at a height of 1.20 metres. Then loop it through the corresponding ratchet. Repeat this on both sides.
Fix the rain canopy: Thread the aluminium poles onto the mosquito net. Finally, put the rain cover over the hammock and fix it to the ground with pegs.
The assembly of a hammock tent usually takes between 10 and 15 minutes and can vary slightly depending on the model. Therefore, don't be discouraged if you need a little longer at the beginning.
