Our story
Born from paintball. Expanded by ideas.
Fort Ouest opened its doors on November 21, 2005. Paintball has always been our specialty: a game that gets people moving, communicating and sharing a real outdoor mission.
Over the years, the site has kept evolving. Airsoft, Grab or Tag, food service and new outdoor projects now complement the experience, while the team continually improves the grounds and the way every visit is prepared.
In the field
The evolution
One base. New missions.

Behind Fort Ouest
Built by a player. Developed by an entrepreneur.
Daniel Fournier has played paintball since 1992. With studies in business administration and graphic design, he co-founded the company in 2004 and has led Fort Ouest’s advertising, business development and new activity concepts since opening.
His approach is practical: listen to visitors, test ideas in the field and keep improving the experience. Have an idea that could come to life at Fort Ouest? He is always interested in a good conversation.
