tree tent

Hanging forest accommodation

A tree tent is a suspended camping shelter that hangs between trees, combining elements of a tent and a hammock.

Unlike ground tents, tree tents keep campers elevated above uneven terrain, wet ground, or wildlife.

They typically feature a waterproof canopy and mesh walls: We set up the tree tent about four feet off the forest floor.
