DD Travel Hammock / Bivi

DD Travel Hammock Bivi - Dual Use Hammock and Ground Shelter

The DD Travel Hammock Bivi weighs 930g and works both suspended as a hammock and on the ground as a bivi shelter. The double-layered design includes a built-in mosquito net and waterproof floor layers. With pre-fitted webbing and spreader poles included, this versatile system suits users with any level of hammock camping experience.

Waterproof Hammock for Ground and Tree Camping

The waterproof base layers make this hammock ready to deploy on the ground as a bivi when trees aren't available. Backpackers and long-distance hikers appreciate this flexibility when campsites turn out to be tree-free. The 2.7m x 1.4m size accommodates users up to 6ft 5in and 125kg comfortably. The double-layered design with velcro tab closure lets you insert a partially-inflated Thermarest between layers for insulation in cooler weather.

Hammock with Built-in Mosquito Net Protection

The ultra-fine mesh mosquito net zips closed for 100% bug protection against all insects. Two double-sided zippers allow easy open and close from inside or outside. You can unzip both sides and roll up the net to secure it out of the way, or suspend the hammock with the net on the bottom to lounge in the sun. The foldable lightweight spreader poles and elastic keep the net properly positioned.

Complete Hammock Camping System

This hammock comes pre-fitted with 10m of strong suspension webbing (5m each end), eliminating the need to purchase separate suspension systems. Four internal pockets store small valuables, while two internal hanging loops hold torches and glasses. Four tabs on each corner of the base allow you to peg out the hammock, suspend equipment, or fit a DD Underblanket for cold weather camping.

Versatile Camping Shelter for UK Adventures

Available in Coyote Brown and Olive Green, this hammock handles the varied conditions found across UK camping destinations. From Scottish Highland wild camping to English woodland adventures, the waterproof floor and mosquito protection work reliably. The dual-use capability means you're prepared whether you find trees for suspension or need ground-based shelter.

Note: Some Travel Hammock users may experience mild condensation due to the waterproof floor. The DD Frontline Hammock offers the same design without the waterproof base layer if condensation is a concern.
