Jungle tents

Jungle tents for forest and wildlife resorts

Tents for wooded, humid and wildlife rich land: raised off the ground, sealed against insects, and planned to leave the forest floor as it was.

Forest sites

What a forest site asks of a tent

A forest gives guests shade, birdsong and privacy. It also brings humidity, leaf litter, insects and animals. A jungle tent is planned around all of that.

  • Raised decks keep the floor dry, let water and small animals pass under, and avoid digging up roots.
  • Mesh on every opening and zipped or glazed doors keep insects out at night.
  • Mould resistant fabric and ventilation matter more in humid shade than in open sun.
  • Clear space around each tent limits falling branches and fire risk. Check tree health before you site a tent.
  • Rules: land near forests, sanctuaries and eco sensitive zones often has extra limits. Confirm them with your local authority first.

Our Nature’s Defense guides cover keeping insects, snakes and allergens away from a glamping site.

Questions

Jungle tents: common questions

There is no single answer. Cocoon and safari tents on raised decks suit most forest sites; we suggest one after seeing your land, rainfall and access.

Mesh on every opening, sealed floors on a raised deck, and good habits such as closing doors at dusk. Our guides explain more.

Usually yes. Decks on light footings can be placed between trees, and the layout can be drawn around them.

Land near forests and protected areas often has extra rules. Check with your local authority before you build.
