History of Hammocking

Hammocks were first used by indigenous people of Central and South America for sleeping safely off the ground. While people still use hammocks to sleep in, they are known for leisure and relaxation outdoors.

Importance of Hammocking

For me, I love to spend time hammocking in the summer. Whether it is to rest for a bit after a long day or to enjoy a book. I feel weightless and at ease when swaying gently in the trees. My favorite memories of hammocking are with my family camping, being able to relax after a long day of exploring. I can relax knowing that I can rest as the breeze slowly sways me between the trees and to just enjoy the beauty of nature with family as we sit and chat in our hammocks.
