Lac Feuquières

About

Feuquières Lake is a freshwater body of the southeastern portion of Eeyou Istchee James Bay (municipality), in Jamésie, in the administrative region of Nord-du-Québec, in the province of Quebec, in Canada.

This body of water extends in the townships of Feuquières and Robert. Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector. Recreational tourism activities come second.

The hydrographic slope of Lake Feuquières is accessible through the forest road R1032 (North-South direction) which passes on the west side of Gabriel Lake (Opawica River tributary); in addition, route 167 passes on the east side through the Normandin River, connecting Chibougamau to Saint-Félicien, Quebec. The surface of Lake Feuquières is usually frozen from early November to mid-May, however, safe ice circulation is generally from mid-November to mid-April.
