Ideas for using a tarp


Friluftsliv, Vandring, Paddling by Varuste.net, 2.7.2021

A tarp, also known as a lightweight cover, is an incredibly versatile piece of equipment for both day trips and overnight excursions. Despite its minimalist simplicity, the tarp is an exceptionally versatile shelter for enjoying outdoor life in all seasons, thanks to its ingenious and well-thought-out details.

1. Day trips
A tarp is a perfectly reasonable addition to day trips. With a tarp, a few stakes, and perhaps some bungee cords or attachment ropes, you can quickly set up a nice shelter for sitting during a coffee or lunch break in the wind or rain. Tip! Trimming is easy when you tie prusik knots to the ropes for extreme tightness adjustment.

If fiddling with prusik knots doesn't interest you, an excellent product for all kinds of attachments and tightening is the DD Hammocks Whoopie Slings. Essentially, it's an affordable, pre-made tightening and attachment system for versatile use. Check out the video instructions for using the ropes on the product page!

2. Canopy for hammocking or camping
If your hammock setup doesn't include a built-in canopy, it's essential to have one, especially when outdoor activities take place in regions with unpredictable weather conditions. A tarp is also an excellent piece of equipment when camping with a tent: You can extend the covered area of the tent entrance conveniently. This way, you stay protected from the weather and can enjoy or cook your meals comfortably in the spacious area in front of the tent, without having to squeeze into the vestibule.

3. Versatile shelter limited only by imagination
