Details
If you’re looking for a tough as nails, quick pitch tent that’ll keep you going for a longer tour then Black Wolf will have you covered with their Turbo range.
This newly updated range has tape sealed seams where the floor and tent wall meet, and the fly has wider corners to guard against water leakage. The siliconised polyester floor is easy to roll which makes this tent even simpler to set up and more importantly - pack up. And with extra reinforcing along the roof poles, your turbo will have added sturdiness in windy conditions.
The three-pole awning can be turned into an extended living area with optional panels, or it can be sectioned off with an optional screen room for a fully enclosed space. The PVC storm flaps at the bottom of the optional front and side panels will help keep your awning dry in wet weather, and the zips and Velcro on the panels attach to the fly to allow for tape sealing for added water protection.
The Plus 300 is perfect for families or groups on the move, as it’s spacious and can be divided by a curtain into two rooms or left open for one big space. The Turbo Plus 300 from Black Wolf is the ideal tent for a fuss and stress-free camping experience.
- Sleeps 8
- 3 pole awning
- Quick pitch frame
- Durable canvas construction
- Easy to roll siliconised polyester PU floor
- Extra fly coverage for improved weather protection
- Reinforcing on the inside of the fly for durability

Quick and robust
We’ve had this tent for 2 years now and it hasn’t missed a beat. The four of us on stretcher beds with room to spare stayed dry in torrential downpours on Fraser Island, safe and snug in very gusty winds at South West Rocks, and warm(ish :P) on very cold nights out in the Simpson desert. We had daily tent set ups and pack downs in under 20 minutes. Love this tent - and it’s worth the money.
Great tent in tough weather
We have used our Turbo 300 Plus on two family camping trips and it fit the 4 of us in with plenty of room. The last trip we survived 40-50km/hr wind gusts all night with no dramas when many around us were forced to abandon their tents and find other accommodation. Heavy and bulky bag so it does need 2 people to carry but if this isn't an issue I can definitely recommend. Have only camped in light rain but again, no issues.
Perfect family tent
We love our turbo 300 plus. Plenty of room for a family of four, kids slept on stretchers in the back and we had enough room for a double mattress and storage. Looking forward to adding in some side awning panels.
Fast shipping and great customer service, thanks Snowys.

Q&A's (15)
New update1 answer
Hi, I’m looking at purchasing this tent, however I have been told there is an updated version coming out soon. Is this true, and how far away is it? Thanks.
G'day Stuart,
We haven't heard anything from Black Wolf about updating the Turbo tent range, so as far as we know there aren't any changes coming up that we are aware of.
When was this last updated?1 answer
You say the product description this is a newly updated range. When was it last updated or are you referring to the 2017 updates?
G'day Joanne,
The Black Wolf Turbo Plus 300 was last updated in mid to late 2017, so this is the most recent model available.
Amount of tent pegs1 answer
In the process of preparing for trip. Sandy location. How many sand pegs (500mm) do I require to set this tent up and keep in place for 2 weeks
G'day Dylan,
When brand new, the Black Wolf Turbo Plus 300 Tent comes with 37 steel pegs. I'd suggest grabbing that many and then maybe a couple of spares just in case. 40 should get you safely out of trouble for your trip.
Glamping Tent1 answer
I am looking for tents for a school camp that are hardy enough to handle students and pitched for up to 6 months. Is this a good choice?
G'day Allen,
If you're looking to pitch a tent for 6 months at a time, most tents will start to really weather under the sun's UV rays. Whilst the Black Wolf Turbo Plus 300 Tent is a pretty strong tent that should withstand the students using it, I'm not convinced it will stand up to the sun for such long periods of time. If you put a "sacrificial" tarp over the top of it or regularly UV treated it, then it would most likely do the job for you. If you wanted a tent to be permanently erected, I would suggest something that is a pure cotton canvas, not something that is a mixed fibre like these tents.
What's your experience with Warranty repairs?1 answer
Black Wolf tents are known for their lifetime warranty, just wondering what your experience is with the actual process? Is it quick and easy to contact Black Wolf and have repairs made?
G'day Yvonne,
I've just had a chat with our warranties manager, who takes all our customers' warranty concerns to manufacturers on their behalf. He said that Black Wolf are one of the easiest companies to deal with. He said that it should be worth noting that it's a limited lifetime warranty, so once the tent has been damaged by you (or someone else) then it's not covered by the warranty. He also mentioned that if you register your product online with Black Wolf as per the tag on the tent, then it speeds up the process even more.
Side panels 1 answer
Do the side and front panels for a black wolf 240 fit the 300 turbo delux?
G'day Kellie,
The side panels for the Black Wolf Turbo range are the same, so you'll be able to switch them over but the front panels are all different and you'd need to get one specific to your tent.
Spare Tent Bag1 answer
I've read a few blogs that suggest for camping novices like myself it is recommended to get a spare tent bag to store the Fly and poles in, as trying to pack the complete setup with tent, especially not folder correctly and tightly, it will be a bugger to get everything to fit back in. Any advice on whether there are spare tent bags available that would suit? Thanks
G'day Peter,
Something that a lot of people do for all tents, not just the Black Wolf Turbo Plus 300 Tent, is look at different swag bags that will fit their fly and poles in. Many of the larger ones will be more than enough for what you're needing.
Will the Black Wolf Base Camp Fly and/or Super Fly still fit this model?1 answer
Loved reading about this possibility in the Snowys Blog "How to Get the Best Out of Your Black Wolf Turbo Tent by David Leslie on 20th December 2011"
G'day Monique,
Great question. We haven't sold a Basecamp or Super Fly for some time and don't hold any stock for them, so we can't physically check this, but I'd assume that you would still be okay as dimensions for the tent from my knowledge haven't changed from earlier models.
Straps for compacting tent1 answer
Hi, In your article on how to make best use of the blackwolf and packing up. Mentions using different straps to pack up the tent, to compact it properly. Do you have any recommendations.
G'day Adam,
While they're not currently listed on our website, these are the straps you're after. We do have them available, so if you'd like to give us a call on 1300 914 007, we can give you a price and help you make the order.
Tent bags1 answer
Have you got any suggestions for another bag to carry the fly/side walls and poles in? Also, do you have any replacement carry bags for the actual tent as mine is ripped.
G'day Adam,
You could look at considering options from our Duffle Bag range depending on the size you're after.
And we'll be able to sort a spare bag out for you - just give our team a buzz on 1300 914 007 and they'll look after you!
Is this the 2017 model?1 answer
They are upgraded regularly, is this the 2017 model?
G'day Mary,
The details we have on these tents state S17 so yes they are the most recent model.
Canopy size1 answer
Hi I'll be doing most of my camping on my own with my 2 children 2 and 9 tossing up between this and the oztent RV5 what's the size difference in the undercover canopy size (which is bigger) and which one would you recommend to suit us best? Thanks in advance
G'day Kacey,
The awning of the RV5 is 200 x 260, and the awning on the Black Wolf Turbo Plus 300 is 250 x 180. Overall the Turbo 300 Plus is far more spacious, but the awnings on both the RV and Turbo can be turned into an extended living area with side and front panels available to each tent.
It also may help to watch a video set up of the RV5 here, and then compare it to the Turbo 300 Plus here starting at 5:00.
As you do have a toddler, you probably would need to get your tent up as ASAP when you get to the campsite, so for that reason I would say the RV5 would be your best bet even though it's less roomy.
At the end of the day, once you lay a groundsheet down, set up the tent, put the awning over and peg it all out by yourself, the Turbo may set you back a good 20 mins, whereas the RV5 is going to be a lot faster, as the frame takes 30 secs - and once you peg it out etc you should be done in under 5 minutes.
A touring tent like this is a big investment, so if you have any other queries – give us a buzz on 1300 914 007 and one of the Snowys team will be happy to help.
What size is the rear bedroom?1 answer
Will it fit 2 adult cots?
Hi Karl,
The rear bedroom is 1.8m by 3m so at a squeeze would fit two stretchers that are 80cm wide each with a bit of space between.
Will the tent bag fit in a sedan boot1 answer
Hi, Will the tent bag fit in a toyota camry?
G’day Bala,
It will depend on the size of the boot, this particular tent is 145L x 38W x 40H cm when packed up in its bag.
It's not clear online what the dimensions of a Toyota Camry's boot is, so the easiest way would be to give it a once over with a tape measure and compare that to the packed dimensions of the Turbo 300 Plus Tent.
How big is the bag?1 answer
How big is the tent bag? Will it fit in a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry boot?
G’day Ben,
The packed size of the Turbo Plus 300 Tent when it’s in the bag is 145L x 38W x 40H cm. As for whether it will fit in the boot of either of those cars, we’re not entirely sure what the exact measurements are as it’s not clear on Toyota/Honda’s website. The best way to figure this out would be for you to whip out a tape measure and then compare it to the measurements listed above.
