Invisible in the Woods: The New Traveller Camp Forest Outdoor Hammock –
The Ultimate Upgrade for Bushcraft & Wild Camping
Anyone who spends their nights outdoors knows: your gear determines the success of your adventure. For over 30 years, AMAZONAS Ultra-Light has stood for innovation and quality in the field of ultralight equipment. As pioneers in the industry, we have made it our mission to channel the feedback of our community directly into our product development.
The result? Our absolute bestseller, the Traveller Camp, has been given a new look. Introducing the all-in-one hammock-tarp combination: Traveller Camp Forest in our proven leaf-camouflage pattern.
What do I need to spend a night outdoors?
Many trekking fans and wild campers in Europe face the challenge of finding a setup that is simultaneously lightweight, weatherproof, and inconspicuous. A tent is often too heavy or impractical in rough terrain, while a simple hammock offers no protection against insects or rain.
The Traveller Camp Forest solves this problem as a fully integrated all-in-one system. It combines a comfortable hammock, a protective mosquito net, and a weatherproof tarp into a single, cohesive product.
Requested by the Community: The New Forest Design
We listened! Bushcrafters and survival experts from all over Europe asked us for a version that becomes one with nature. The leaf pattern (Camo) ensures that your camp visually merges with the forest surroundings—ideal for everyone who values maximum discretion while wild camping.
The Advantages of the Traveller Camp Forest at a Glance
Why is this combination the ultimate setup for your next tour?
• Complete Protection: The permanently installed tarp protects you from rain, while the extremely fine-mesh mosquito net (1000 MESH) keeps even the smallest biting midges out.
• Ultralight & Compact: Despite the full set of features, the pack size remains minimal—perfect for long-distance hikes and multi-day trekking tours.
• Lay Diagonally: Thanks to the special cut, you can use the Brazilian lying technique and sleep almost as flat as in a bed.
• Durability: With 30 years of experience in the outdoor sector, we only use materials that can withstand the harshest conditions.
Technical Details & Features:
• Material: High-quality, tear-resistant polyester (Ripstop).
• Water Column: The integrated tarp is reliably waterproof with approx. 3,000mm.
• Weight: Optimized for backpack trekking, weighing only about 1.6kg.
• Ridgeline: A ridgeline for the mosquito net is already integrated.
• Thermal Compartment: A pocket for your sleeping pad is integrated into the underside to keep you warm from below.
Simple Setup: Your Perfect Sleeping Spot in Just a Few Steps
One of the greatest advantages of the Traveller Camp Forest is the time saved. While others are still struggling with tent poles and pegs, you are already relaxing in your hammock.
1. Find a Spot: Look for two stable trees spaced about 4–5 meters apart.
2. Hang it up: Attach the hammock to the trees using suspension ropes (e.g., our Adventure Ropes). White arrows on the Traveller Camp show exactly where the tree attachments should go.
3. Tension: Pull the integrated tarp outwards over the ridgeline and secure it to the ground with the 4 included pegs (in high-visibility signal colors).
4. Ready to go: The mosquito net tensions itself automatically during setup—your secure night camp is ready.

Maximum Flexibility: A Setup for Any Terrain
The Traveller Camp Forest is much more than just a hammock—it is a modular overnight system. Thanks to decades of experience, we have optimized the design so you can adapt to any situation in nature instantly.
1. The Classic: Between Two Trees
The standard variant for maximum comfort. Simply span the Traveller Camp Forest between two stable trees.
• Pro Tip: In good weather, you can simply "flip open" and fix one side of the integrated tarp. This allows you to enjoy the fresh forest air and the view while remaining protected should a sudden shower occur.
2. The Space Miracle: Use as a Tarp Only
Would you rather sleep on the ground or do you need a dry retreat for your gear during the day? No problem.
• "Hoist up" the hammock: A special feature is the ability to pull the hammock right up under the tarp ridge using the suspension ropes.
• The Benefit: This creates a spacious, protected area under the tarp that you can use as a "living room" for cooking or changing, while the hammock stays clean and dry above you.
3. The Ground Setup: When Trees are Missing
Bushcrafters and trekking fans know the struggle: you reach the perfect spot, but the trees are too far apart or non-existent. The Traveller Camp Forest won't let you down.
• Tent Mode: Using trekking poles or suitable branches, the system can be transformed into a Ground Setup.
• Construction: Simply tension the ridgeline to the trekking poles so the tarp unfolds like a ridge tent above you, and fix the 4 tarp corners to the ground with pegs. This ensures you always have a secure roof over your head, even in treeless regions or alpine terrain.
Who is the Traveller Camp Forest Made For?
Whether in the dense forests of Central Europe or on expeditions in Scandinavia—the Traveller Camp Forest is incredibly versatile:
• Bushcrafters: Thanks to the camo pattern, you remain undetected while perfecting your wilderness skills.
• Wild Campers: A minimal footprint and fast setup/teardown are essential. Additionally, hammock camping is often tolerated in Europe where traditional tenting might be restricted.
• Survival & Trekking Fans: When every gram counts, but you cannot compromise on safety (insects, weather).
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the Traveller Camp Forest suitable for beginners? Absolutely! Since the tarp, mosquito net, and hammock form a single unit, there is no need for complicated coordination of individual gear pieces. The setup is intuitive and finished within minutes.
2. How effective is the camouflage pattern? The "Forest" leaf pattern was specifically developed for European mixed forests. It breaks up the contours of the setup, making it barely perceptible as a man-made object from a distance.
3. Do I need additional accessories for hanging? For maximum flexibility, we recommend our ultralight tree suspensions. They allow you to attach the hammock in a tree-friendly manner without the need for complicated knots.
4. Can I remove the tarp? The tarp is permanently attached to the system. However, on clear nights, it can be folded to the side and secured at the top, giving you a clear view of the stars while the mosquito net continues to protect you.
Conclusion: Your Upgrade for the Ultimate Outdoor Experience
The Traveller Camp Forest is more than just a new color. It is the result of decades of expertise and direct exchange with you—the people who are at home in the wild. If you are looking for a reliable, ultralight, and stealthy outdoor hammock, this is the model for you.
