Please ANet, making some POIs inaccessible when there aren’t particular events going on (like Stonecrag Kraal in Plains of Ashford) is really, REALLY annoying.
This kind of whining is what removed the “skill” out of "skill challenges. You should feel bad about even suggesting this.
Can you provide context instead of spouting out nonsense? What do skill challenges have to do with some POIs being only accessible during events and the unnecessary drag of idly waiting for said event to happen?

It’s possible to get in there even if the gates are shut. Go to the location in the screenshot, up the rock that looks like a ramp, jump to the right around the corner onto the other rock, and then jump onto the fence. If this just teleports you to the gate then you can attack the gate. Attacking the gate and destroying it will trigger the event.
There are NO items in PVE that you can’t get into that rely on the event. By this I mean you don’t need an event to happen in order to have access. If someone as found something then by all means post and let me know.
Go down the map to the crossroad south of stonekraag Kraal (near the heart to help androchus). There is a charr who starts the event to retake it. It’s not a bug that the gate could not be attacked. The event must be started.
Perhaps this area is bugged? Dyrala Ogrestalker was nowhere to be found. Tried Ayrilana’s jumping suggestion but was ported to the gates and could NOT attack them. “Drive off the ogres attacking Watchcrag Tower” event spawns over and over; I’ve completed it 3 times already. Very much want to get my last POI at Stonecrag Kraal but there doesn’t appear to be any way to do so.
I should add that after completing “Drive off the ogres attacking Watchcrag Tower,” I have proceeded to the gates of Stonecrag but still cannot attack them.
