Products / Travel

Eagles Nest Outfitters developed a line of outstanding, lightweight and comfortable hammocks that are also highly portable, making them ideal for traveling.

 

The DoubleNest is large enough to comfortably fit two people — as long as those two people don’t mind being nestled close. Like any large hammock, you’ll inevitably end up cocooned next to each other. More accurately, the DoubleNest is able to support a lot of weight: Its capacity is an impressive 400 pounds.

The DoubleNest is incredibly easy to transport and set up. The entire hammock compacts in a compression sack about the size of a cabbage. It’s so portable you may be tempted to take it camping, although it’s a bit heavy to bring on a backpacking trip, at 1 pound, 6 ounces. Unless you don’t mind carrying extraneous weight, of course. Learning to unpack and hang the hammock is easy, and a quick video tutorial on the Eagles Nest website is all the instruction you’ll need.

 

The DoubleNest is constructed of breathable, durable and quick-drying nylon, so you won’t overheat in warm weather. It’s also incredibly comfortable, even for sleeping — again, if you don’t mind being nestled close to whomever you’re sharing with.

 

And finally, the hammock is available in a wide range of color combinations, from neutral earth tones to brighter, bolder options. Learn more at eaglesnestoutfittersinc.com.
