Airsoft pellets travel at ~400 fps and can cause stinging, bruising, or welts if proper gear isn't worn. Eye protection is mandatory at all times during play.
Velocity limits: 400 fps (rifles/pistols), 500 fps (sniper rifles). Minimum engagement distance is 10 ft (100 ft for sniper rifles). No blind firing. Full face masks required for ages 12-17; ages 18+ need ANSI Z87-rated goggles with retention strap plus face covering. Barrel covers required outside the playing field. Staff handles all disputes and injury calls.
Honest gameplay matters: Airsoft relies on self-reporting hits. Players who take a pellet call "HIT!" and exit to respawn—there's no paint mark like paintball. Good sportsmanship is a must; repeated violations or refusal to call hits can result in ejection.
Book airsoft + whitewater tubing (1-2 hours on the Potomac River) same day and save $10/person. Rafting combos also available within 15 minutes. Same-day discounts apply.
River & Trail is primarily known for whitewater tubing, rafting, kayaking, and camping in the Harpers Ferry area. They operate four check-in locations across the tri-state region, about an hour from Washington DC/Baltimore and 30 minutes from Leesburg, VA. Airsoft is one segment of their recreational adventure offerings.
- •Important note: River & Trail explicitly states they promote airsoft purely for recreational fun and do not condone the misuse of actual weapons. A portion of airsoft proceeds are donated to organizations supporting victims of gun violence.
