Does a hammock work for a side sleeper? I am super uncomfortable sleeping on my back, but I’d love to try it if it would be feasible on my side.
I often roll over from my back onto my side and it works fairly well! I would recommend a longer, wider hammock. 11 or 12 feet in length and just “wide” labeled hammocks from any cottage vendor. I would recommend a pillow as well. I have used both the thermarest memory foam pillow (bulkier and heavier) and a sea to summit Aeros ultralight with great success.
A bridge hammock is also recommended for side sleepers.
