The lac Bazile is a body of water on the hydrographic side of the Petit Saguenay River, in the unorganized territory of Mont-Élie, in the Charlevoix-Est Regional County Municipality of the administrative region Capitale-Nationale, in Quebec, in Canada.
A forest road runs along the south shore of Lac Bazile. Another forest road runs along the northeast part of the lake. These roads join the Périgny road north.[1]
Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of Bazile Lake is usually frozen from the end of November to the beginning of April, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally done from mid-December to the end of March.
