Camping in trees?

[R-P]

Does anyone know any products designed to spend the night up a tree? Needs to be big enough for 2 people and have some kind of roof. Was just going to sling a couple of hammocks up and stretch a tarp over for a roof but I imagine there are some sort of tree tents on the market somewhere?

Yeah I saw them, was hoping to find something a bit cheaper to be honest. Also based in the UK would be good to save on shipping. Cheers anyways

That will be my Christmas present to myself then. And my wife can get me the sleeping bag from the same site.

There are mountaineering tents for big wall climbs which are sort of suspended hammocks with built in canopies , very specialised and expensive .

Always fancied one of these; Free Spirit Spheres

 

An orb-shed suspended by cables. Not sure it really qualifies as a tent, but would easily sleep two in comfort. The shipping costs might be a little steep.

I have one of these: Camping Hammock It is OK, but can get a bit warm if you sleep inside it.

 

If I had thought about it a bit more, I would have got one of these with the integrated mozzi/rain covers DD Jungle Hammock Modular Hammock System

 

I know you wanted something for 2, but presumably you could just put two side by side in a good location. Both relatively cheap compared to the other items you have been recommended.

Portaledge fits your bill. Depends how much room and weight you want to carry. I use a Hennesey Hammock, ultralight and very simple.
