The course of this river runs entirely in the townships of Queylus and Obalski. The Énard River hydrographic slope is accessible via route 167, which serves the west and south side of Chibougamau Lake. This last road links Chibougamau and Saint-Félicien, Quebec. The Canadian National Railway spans the Énard River at the mouth of Inlet Lake. The surface of the Énard River is usually frozen from the beginning of November to the middle of May, however the safe circulation on the ice is usually from mid-November to mid-April.
