What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“The Blacktail 3 is a great tent for backpacking or car camping. It’s roomy, has excellent airflow, and is easy to set up. I love the dual doors and vestibules for extra gear storage, and it’s lightweight enough to carry on longer trips.”

After long days on the trail, the Big Agnes Blacktail 3 Tent offers the perfect retreat. Designed for three-season versatility, this spacious tent provides room for three campers and gear, making it a reliable choice for backpacking or front-country adventures.

With dual doors and vestibules, it’s easy to access and store gear, while vents and low-profile airflow features reduce condensation and keep the interior fresh. The durable polyester construction and 1,500mm waterproof coating protect against the elements, while pre-bent poles create a roomy, high-ceiling design for added comfort. Lightweight and trail-ready, the Blacktail 3 Tent is a comfortable home away from home.
