President Barack Obama (web | news | bio) has signed an executive order to close the prison in Cuba within a year.
The prison holds 245 "enemy combatants" captured since 2001.
Inhofe says he opposes the plan to close it and will use the visit to gather facts so he can "speak with authority" about the need for the prison.
Inhofe will travel Monday with Sens. Pat Roberts of Kansas, David Vitter of Louisiana and Mel Martinez of Florida.
