The Lac du Moulin (English: Lake of the Mill) is a body of water in the watershed of the rivière du Moulin and the Saguenay River. Lac du Moulin is located in the unorganized territory of Lac-Pikauba, in the Charlevoix Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in the province of Quebec, in Canada. The "Lac du Moulin" is located in the northern part of the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve.
The Lac du Moulin watershed is mainly served indirectly by the forest road R0287 which runs on the east and north sides of the lake. This last road connects north to route 175 which connects the city of Quebec (city) to Saguenay (city). Some other secondary forest roads serve the sector for forestry and recreational tourism activities.
Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of Lac du Moulin is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of the Mill, however safe circulation on the ice is generally done from mid-December to mid-Mill.
