I've tried ziplines in the past and they are a blast. I want to find out the minimum diameter trees you would need to have to hang this up.

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question. I guess it just depends on the weight capacity of your zip line riders and how you stabilize it. We used huge posts instead of trees for ours. The seat however is a blast and we love it! The LED lights are fabulous in the dark and it's a hit with all the kids.

Yo may need to purchase a longer chain to wrap around your tree or drill/screw in your hooks into the tree. The problem you are facing is the right amount of distance between the trees for it to hang properly.

I am sorry I dont have it in tree's, I have a 6 foot A fraim stand. I think you need at least 6 foot or you will ball up not stretch out.

Each of the two ropes are two inches shy of ten feet. Since you must double each rope to hang the hammock, you have a bit less than five feet of rope on each end to work with. I would totally use the backpacking friendly ropes provided to suspend my hammock IF they had just been 3 or 4 feet longer each. As it is, I opted just to use my extra pair of unfortunately heavy Atlas Straps to suspend it instead, because I don't like being limited to using medium thickness trees that are only ten feet apart.

The swing has thick S-hooks to hang it from rings. I'm sure you could figure out a way to hang it from a branch, but it would take some creativity - and safety checking!

Dont things so. You need a tree located to certain distance or a hook, or something to hold the system

Hi...you are going to love it. I have a 6ft tree and it get's a little lost...A 4ft tree is perfect. Don't get me wrong, I love the way it goes around the top of the tree. It's a wonderful conversation piece. Don't be surprised if some of your friends and family order it for their trees. That is what happened with me. A friend had it on her 6 ft. and I had to have it. It is sooooo cute!!!!

I for one use a 5 inch tree for normal slackline. That is the minimum for me, however due to its design, there is no maximum, which is great for highlining

I bought several and recommend them. As shipped, on a 1 1/2" diameter tree they will cover 36" in vertical height. However, wrapped around a 4 1/2" tree the coverage is reduced to about 12". So obviously the diameter of the trees will dictate how many you require. Also, any tree less than 1 1/2" in diameter will have a sloppy fit unless you wrap it tightly and secure the ends. I just used electrical tape.

I don't remember seeing a listed minimum tree size on the box, but I wouldn't use it on a tree under 16 diameter

I have got mine between 2 trees which are around 13 feet apart. With the attached chain links and tree hanging straps Algoma 7800 Hammock Tree Hanging Straps there is room to even extend it by another 2-3 feet. So you should be good.

Hello The ideal distance to hang the hammock is 1.8 meters from the groundAbout the distance between the posts, trees, walls must be minimum 12 feetYou can use any nylon Rope or Straps to extend the hammock in larger distancesIf you need more assistance Please contact us againThe Hammocks Rada Team

No idea. Im from the Puget Sound, so im pretty low elevation. Im sure it might work. My old Zippo worked in Illinois, and that was at about 5 or 7 thousand feet. Wish I could help out mor.

We bought a tree swing hanging kit for $46. It included two 3' straps and hardware. It made hanging the swing a lot easier and will be gentler on the tree limb. :)

Hi Fosh, while ours is strung between two trees that are 24'9" apart(measuring from the inside distance between the trees), the nylon ropes we use for the hammock are tied to the trees at 8'9" off the ground and extend 7' to the end of the carabiner, which ends up being 13'9" apart (adjust for your personal comfort). We used Chouinard/mountain climbing carabiners rated at 4000 lbs. If you have to use a stand, I suggest getting the largest one you can and if necessary, use nylon rope and climbing carabiners to attach to the the loops of the hammock. It will give you a wider "swing" in the hammock. Additionally, it makes it easier to remove the hammock before it gets wet. We bring ours in at nite and the carabiners make it easy. Another point...don't lay in the hammock if you have buttons on your back pockets. You may snag a string and break it like we did. It easy to repair by tying the strings back together in a double knot, but thought I'd bring it up as a cautionary tale. I hope this is helpful to you. I LOVE my hammock and hope you will enjoy yours as much. Lee

We were not able to hang our swing on an existing swing set or any of our trees. It is big. We are going to have to build a frame to hold it.
