Many bushcrafters and outdoors folk choose to sleep in a hammock rather than camp in a tent. There are various types and makes of hammock available but one that caught my attention straight away is the NapSack hammock.

I’ve seen these being used in the woods and my son assures me that they are excellent to sleep in. The NapSack hammocks have a variety of features that help to make for a better and more comfortable experience. In fact, the company uses the tagline ‘the best lay you’ve ever had!’ to help promote it. Taking the humour aside, the hammock, combined with the tent-like tarp, provides a really good system.

Had a very cosy night in my fabulous tarp and hammock set up from the guys at NapSack Hammocks last night.  So easy to set up quickly, very roomy and comfy and the zipped doors and bug net tent meant I wasn’t bothered by any mozzies.
