Want to hang about?. Bald cypress tree, Florida, US
Hammock camping is what's up. Pictured here is a hammock tied between two branches of a huge bald cypress tree under a pink sky in Florida, United States. The traditional hammock was originally developed by native inhabitants of the Americas to protect themselves from dangerous insects and animals while sleeping. Today hammocks are used to enhance many recreational experiences—they are a traveller's best buddy—and are made from a variety of materials like fabric, netting or rope. What's a great location for some hammock time? Places like Cumbria, Norfolk and Somerset offer hammock-friendly campsites. Have hammock, will travel, and relax. It's just that simple.
