Endako is a small rural community nestled in the heart of the Lakes District in northern British Columbia. Surrounded by rolling hills, forests of spruce, pine, and poplar, and dotted with numerous lakes and rivers, the area is known for its natural beauty and peaceful setting. Just a few minutes from Fraser Lake, Endako offers easy access to one of the region’s most popular fishing and boating destinations, while the broader landscape provides endless opportunities for outdoor recreation such as hiking, camping, hunting, and snowmobiling.
The community itself has a long history tied to the railway and resource industries, and while it is quiet and sparsely populated today, its location along Highway 16 makes it conveniently connected to nearby towns. Vanderhoof lies about 50 minutes to the east and Burns Lake about 40 minutes to the west, both offering full services, shopping, and amenities. The area around Endako blends tranquility, wide-open spaces, and access to some of northern BC’s best outdoor adventure, making it appealing to those who value a slower pace of life and a close connection to nature.
The vegetation around Endako reflects the classic northern interior landscape of British Columbia. The area is part of the Sub-Boreal Spruce zone, meaning it’s dominated by mixed forests of lodgepole pine, white and black spruce, and subalpine fir. These conifers are interspersed with deciduous species like trembling aspen, paper birch, and balsam poplar, which bring brilliant colors in the fall.
Closer to the lakes, rivers, and wetlands, you’ll find dense willow thickets, alder, and lush understory plants, while drier, open areas support grasses, wildflowers, and shrubs such as Saskatoon berry and wild rose. Logging activity over the years has created a patchwork of regrowth, with young stands of pine and poplar covering much of the landscape. This mix of mature forest, regenerating timber, and open meadows gives the Endako area a diverse, layered look and provides excellent habitat for wildlife.
The area around Endako is a playground for anyone who loves the outdoors, offering year-round recreation in a peaceful northern setting. Just minutes away is Fraser Lake, known as the “Salmon Capital of the World” for its incredible fishing, where anglers can catch sockeye salmon, rainbow trout, char, and burbot. The surrounding rivers and smaller lakes also provide endless opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, and boating.
For land-based recreation, the rolling hills and forests around Endako are ideal for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and ATVing in the warmer months. In the fall, hunting is a popular pursuit, with abundant moose, deer, and waterfowl in the region. Winter transforms the landscape into a snowy retreat, perfect for snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. With nearby communities like Fraser Lake, Burns Lake, and Vanderhoof offering trail networks and organized events, Endako combines small-town tranquility with access to some of northern BC’s most rewarding outdoor adventures.
Endako has a history shaped by the railway, resource development, and the settlement of the Lakes District. The community was originally established as a station along the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway in the early 1900s, when the line was being pushed west toward Prince Rupert. Like many small northern towns, the railway brought a surge of activity, with Endako serving as a supply point and hub for nearby farms, logging operations, and later, mining ventures.
The surrounding area has long been home to Indigenous peoples, particularly the Dakelh (Carrier) First Nations, whose deep connection to the land, rivers, and lakes stretches back thousands of years. Their traditions of fishing, hunting, and gathering remain central to the cultural identity of the region today. In more recent decades, Endako became known for the Endako Molybdenum Mine, one of the largest open-pit molybdenum mines in the world, which operated from the 1960s until its closure in 2015. The mine played a significant role in the local economy, providing employment and shaping the community’s modern history. Today, Endako is quieter, but its roots in railway, resource work, and Indigenous heritage remain an important part of its story.
