Westport Wargames Paintball is the ideal choice for a Stag or Hen Party, Birthday parties or family get togethers. Catering for both large and small groups, Westport Wargames are open seven days a week, early ‘til late (Also floodlit for those dark winter evenings!!). Whatever the weather we aren’t afraid to go to battle, in fact we find the rain adds to the fun!! The games are played in woodland and fields which are situated on a Private Country Estate, 3 miles from Westport on the Leenane Clifden road. A popular choice for corporate outings as the perfect team building exercise or as a thank you to some valued staff members, especially at Christmas time.
