About Red Lake, ON

Red Lake is a small gold mining town in the Kenora District, way up in northwestern Ontario near the Manitoba border, on Central Time like the rest of the region. The main route in is Highway 105 north from Highway 17 at Vermilion Bay, about 170 km, with Kenora roughly 265 km south and a common supply trip for locals. Nearby communities like Balmertown and Cochenour make for quick daily runs. Charging stations are scarce this far north, so top up before heading in. Red Lake Airport, just 18 km out, connects to fly-in communities with no road access, and the town's mines have been pulling gold out of the ground since the 1926 rush that started it all.
