FAQs about Pallas Paintball
Does the paint stain your clothes?
No, the paint used is water-soluble and generally washes out easily. However, we provide protective overalls to keep your base layer of clothing as clean as possible.
How long does a typical session last?
Most groups spend about 2 to 3 hours on-site, which includes safety briefings and playing multiple games across different zones. If you add Karting, plan for a 4 to 5-hour visit.
Is paintball safe?
Absolutely. Safety is the top priority at Pallas. All games are supervised by experienced marshals, and full safety masks must be worn at all times while in the game zones.
