First assume that gates give no visible clue in use.

Finally step through the gate and pray that the Ward caster isn't looking in the direction of the gate with Mage Sight when you step through.
Depending on the GM/world, a lesser wish each day could reveal whether there would be an attack on a gate station during that day. I'm not sure if I put that in my writeups opionions gate stations here on the forums a few years ago but in my world, the Transport Guild would routinely use lesser wishes like this (my world would be much more JRPG than most people's here, I think :) ).

How available lesser wishes are, of course, also depends on the GM/world but lesser wish farming can be quite doable if you have two PCs who are very experienced (in the right way) and who have a few lesser wishes up their sleeves...
