If the distance between 2 trees is greater than the length of your hammock, you can use chains or rope to make your hammock reach. Just try not to go over 18 inches (45. 7 cm) extra on each side of your hammock or it could rip. Look for trees that are at least two arms together in thickness. Be careful not to use a dead tree to hook your hammock.
You can find tree straps online or at your local outdoor supplies store.
If your body is resting on the ground when you get in your hammock, raise the tree straps up to raise the hammock.
If your hammock is too big for two walls that are facing each other, hang your hammock diagonally instead.
Test the spot a few times with the stud finder to make sure it’s not a false reading. You can pick up a stud finder at your local hardware store.
