Lac aux Écorces

The lac aux Écorces (English: bark lake) is a freshwater body crossed by the Rivière aux Écorces, in the unorganized territory of Lac-Jacques-Cartier, in the La Côte-de-Beaupré Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in the province from Quebec, to Canada.

Lac aux Écorces is part of the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve.

Some secondary forest roads serve this area for forestry and recreational tourism activities.
