8 Great Hangs

By Ewan

We love it when our customers send us in photos of their hammocks from amazing locations across the globe. To celebrate this year's International Hammock Day on Saturday July 22nd, we are going to share some more of our recent favourites...and as you will soon see, you aren't limited to two perfectly placed trees!

Trees? What trees?

Black Sea Sunset If you want to catch the sunset over the sea, just grab an UltraLight Hammock Stand! You don't need anything but flat ground as shown by this amazing photo from Victor at ihamac.ro

Shelter CampingPhilip Olsen and his friends wanted a bit of shelter; but just because there's a roof over your head doesn't mean you have to sleep on the floor!

 

Get creative in the woods

Huskygard skytown

Our Swedish distributor Huskygard sent us this brilliant shot from one of their events. *please note DD Hammocks don't recommend setting hammocks up at this height and if you choose to do so it is at your own risk.

Paul Carter's one tree hammock It's almost like this was designed for hanging from! Paul Carter making the most of a single very unique tree certainly had us looking twice.

 

Float above the mountains

Henri Wilener Alpine View @henri_willener sent us this photo, far from the dense confines of a forest. Imagine waking up to that view!

Tom Ash Lake District I wonder if Tom Ash can see his house from here? This is taken from the barren but beautiful Fells of the Lake District.
 

Keep that beach sand out of your toes!

Hammock Camping in an Arch Fancy a snooze after swimming? This is the perfect place to get out of the sun for some shut-eye, from ihamac.ro

Thailand Hammocks @princcricky took his hammock on holiday to Thailand...much better than a beach chair!


We want to thank everyone for sending in their brilliant pictures. Keep them coming! Email us, tag us on Facebook or use #ddhammocks on Instagram.
