Rampart is located off of the Elliot Highway and Eureka Road, about 164 miles northwest of Fairbanks. Rampart has a state-maintained public airport with a gravel runway in good condition. Air transportation provides the only year-round access. A 30-mile winter trail exists from the Elliott Highway north to Rampart; it is used only during winter months. The other transportation link is the Yukon River. Fuel and other goods are delivered by barge two or three times each summer. Skiffs and snow machines are used for subsistence hunting and fishing. Rampart receives funds from the Essential Air Services program that subsidizes the cost of commercial flights.
