Directions to Fort Gordon
Fort Gordon is best reached via Interstate 20.
Take Exit 194 to Belair Road and Dyess Parkway. Follow the Dyess Parkway
signs, and also the Fort Gordon signs. Dyess Parkway
will bring you directly into the post through McKenna Gate, also known
as Gate One. Follow the road, which is Chamberlain Avenue, past the guard
house. You will see Darling Hall, a three story brick building with a
red roof, on your left. Darling Hall is the Soldier Service Center and,
most likely, your first stop at Fort Gordon. Information on
signing-in locations is available at Darling Hall and is also available
online here. If you are looking for
lodging, stop at Griffith Hall, on the left just inside the gate.
If traveling to Fort Gordon from Bush Field Airport, follow the airport
exit around to Tobacco Road. It's the road that joins the airport
"circle" right in front of the big flag. Take Tobacco Road all the way
to Fort Gordon. You will enter through Gate 5 onto Avenue of the States.
To reach Darling Hall, stay on the same road, which turns into Rice
Road. Darling Hall will be on the right at the intersection with Barnes
Avenue. GPS devices are somewhat unreliable
for finding your way to Fort Gordon and to buildings on the
installation. If you have a smartphone, we recommend that you
download the "Fort Gordon Post Locator" app from the Apple Store or
Android Market.
Fort Gordon is approximately 142 miles east of Atlanta, 80 miles
southwest of Columbia, South Carolina and 122 miles northwest of

Located about eight miles southwest of Augusta, Fort Gordon's location
offers close proximity to a metropolitan area and is an easy drive from
Atlanta, Savannah, the beaches along the Atlantic Ocean and the
mountains.
