Overview
READY WHEN YOU ARE The Walden Hammock is always ready for adventure. Pop it in your pack to provide sun protection for a day excursion. Use it as the base camp protection for longer backpacking excursions. Find some nice scenery and read a book while swaying in the hammock.

ORIGIN STORY 

Walden Hammocks were designed by an outdoors-man who found that having to pack and carry multiple pieces of gear to provide shelter was cumbersome. So, he made a hammock that could be easily converted into multiple different survival shelters.

WHAT IS THE WALDEN HAMMOCK? 

The Walden is a patent pending hammock design that has a system of channels and attached guidelines enabling it to quickly transform into a variety of shelters. Not only has it been designed with a variety of adventures in mind, it's also been designed to best protect against the elements. It's made of 70D ripstop nylon with polyurethane coating. It's water proof and completely seam sealed, it can hold over 500 lbs, and it has a stitched border that ensures for even tightening of the shelter. Plus, we had comfort in mind. The wide panel in the middle means that when relaxing in the hammock, you won't have a seam running down your back.

Thoughtfully Designed. Quality Made.

DON'T GET CAUGHT WITHOUT SHELTER

The great outdoors are a wondrous place, until they are a dangerous place. Even on simple outdoor excursions, the right equipment can be the difference between life and death. Use the Walden Hammock to protect you from sudden and unexpected weather. Protecting yourself from getting wet can help prevent hypothermia. Or, protecting yourself from the sun on a hot day can help prevent heat stroke.

EASY TO SET UP

Each tie down point can be used to secure the shelter with a hiking pole, stick, or stake. Each tie down point has a guideline attached to the tarp so you can adjust from under the tarp, that way you don't need to tighten from all of the various tie down points. Each guideline has its own pocket so you don’t have a rats nest of cordage when pulling it out, and you don’t lose it.

 EASY TO PACK

The Walden Hammock comes in an easy to carry compression sack. Not only does the hammock fit easily within sack, but there's also room for straps and stakes. This is one piece of gear you won't struggle to get back in it's original packaging.

 

WHERE CAN WALDEN TAKE YOU?

RELAXATION WHEN YOU WANT IT, SHELTER WHEN YOU NEED IT.
