Description
Experience the freedom of ultralight camping with the Leleka Pixy ultralight hammock, the first hammock from innovative Ukrainian brand Leleka, now available through Remlite Ultralight Wilderness Equipment in New Zealand. Designed for minimalist adventurers, the Pixy 2.0 only weighs 200 grams and redefines ultralight hiking hammocks with its compact design, durability, and effortless setup. Whether you’re tramping the Te Araroa Trail, hunting in remote backcountry, or relaxing by an alpine lake, this hammock delivers unmatched comfort without weighing you down. Crafted from high-performance 20D ripstop nylon with a special strengthening weave, the Leleka Pixy ultralight hammock offers breathable, slightly elastic fabric that molds to your body for exceptional comfort in any weather. Rated for up to 135kg, it’s built to endure New Zealand’s rugged conditions while remaining light enough to forget it’s in your pack. The Pixy folds into a compact pouch the size of an orange (approx. 15 x 9 x 9 cm), with G-straps that tighten with elastic for convenient storage, making it a must-have for ultralight setups. The standout feature of the Pixy 2.0 is its patented G-straps fastening system, designed for quick, knot-free setup. Simply find two trees or anchors 3-4.5m apart (trees at least 15cm in diameter), wrap the 2.2m cords, attach the G-hooks, and adjust the height without detaching the hammock. Keep it at least 30cm off the ground to protect the fabric from grass or branches. Remlite’s expert guides ensure foolproof installation, perfect for Kiwi adventurers tackling diverse terrains from Fiordland to the Kaimanawa ranges.

The Leleka Pixy ultralight hammock is ready to use right out of the box and pairs perfectly with Leleka’s hammock mesh for insect protection or a Remlite silpoly tarp for weather-resistant shelter. Combine with an ultralight quilt for a complete sleep system under 500g, ideal for multi-day tramps or hunting trips. Lie diagonally for a flat sleeping position and use the edges as a natural headrest or a jacket-stuffed sack as a pillow for ultimate relaxation.
Care Recommendations
- Weight Limit: Do not exceed 135-160kg to ensure safety and longevity.
- Avoid Wet Conditions: Fabric fibers may migrate when wet, so use a tarp in rainy weather.
- UV Protection: Avoid prolonged sun exposure (e.g., a week or more) to preserve nylon strength.
- Protect the Fabric: Empty pockets of sharp objects and remove shoes before use to prevent damage.
- Cleaning: Gently clean and air dry; store away from UV light.
