Hagensborg is a small community in the Bella Coola Valley in British Columbia, Canada. Its census population in 2006 was 248. The valley was already the ancient home to the Nuxalk people when European explorers arrived. Norwegian settlers from Minnesota and Wisconsin arrived in 1894, and the town was named after Hagen B. Christenson, the first storekeeper in the area and postmaster from April 1, 1896 to October 14, 1910. (“borg” is Norwegian for a fortress or town).
Hagensborg is served by Highway 20, which runs from Williams Lake to Bella Coola, at the mouth of the Bella Coola River on North Bentinck Arm (a side-channel of Dean Channel). The Bella Coola Airport is located in Hagensborg. Hagensborg is not incorporated as a municipality. Its local government representation is provided through the Central Coast Regional District (CCRD). CCRD Electoral Areas “C” and “D” each include part of Hagensborg. The eastern portion is part of Electoral Area “C”, served by Brian Lande, while the western portion is part of Electoral Area “D”, served by Kevin O’Neill.
