24-Hour Gate Details

Fort Riley

Fort Riley has around-the-clock access through major gates including Ogden and Grant. Visitor-control hours and gate schedules can still change for construction or security needs. For questions, call 785-239-2982.

Before You Go

Bring the identification required for your type of visit. If you do not already have installation access, you may need a pass or background check. Visitor-center hours are separate from gate hours and may be shorter. Gate schedules can also change for security, construction or special events, so check the current access notice before a late trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a 24-hour gate mean anyone can enter?

No. The gate may be staffed all day, but normal Army access rules still apply. Visitors may need approved identification, a pass or screening.

Is the visitor center always open 24 hours too?

No. Some visitor centers are open around the clock, but many keep shorter hours. Check the visitor-center schedule separately from the gate schedule.
