Visitation at Walker State Prison

How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements

Overview

Visiting Walker State Prison is a two-step process: get approved as a visitor first, then request an appointment through the department's online visitation system or the facility's scheduling portal. Visiting days are typically weekends and state holidays, though some housing units or special-status inmates have different or limited windows. At check-in, you'll need to be on the inmate's approved visitation list and show a valid government-issued photo ID, along with any documents required during the approval process. Follow dress-code and item rules exactly—showing up intoxicated or in prohibited clothing means your visit gets denied and your appointment slot is lost. Schedule early, keep your confirmation details handy, and double-check any special instructions before you travel.
