Lac-Édouard is a forestry municipality located in Haute-Batiscanie and Haute-Mauricie, on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, in the agglomeration of La Tuque, in Mauricie, in Quebec, Canada.

- environment in the middle of the forest to appreciate nature on all levels (resort, nautical activities, forestry, campsites, outfitters, hunting & fishing, mountain biking, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, boating, beaches...), being on the edge of a vast body of water (Lake Edward) with many bays,
- of its parks focused on nature protection: the proposed Seigneurie-du-Triton biodiversity reserve, the Judith-De Brésoles ecological reserve, Bog-à-Lanières Reserve, and wildlife habitat on Hoffman Island
- its three outfitters on its territory offering hunting, fishing, mountain biking and snowmobiling services,
- territory management, with four ZECS (controlled harvesting zones) which provide public access to recreational tourism activities.
