Lac-des-Aulnes is a hamlet in Saint-Donat; Matawinie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lac-des-Aulnes is located at 46.3667°N, 74.1903°W.
Lac-des-Aulnes rests within a fold of the Matawinie region, where boreal forest begins its slow, deliberate creep towards the more rugged Laurentian highlands. It lies 41.9 km north-east of Mont-Tremblant, QC (from Mont-Tremblant, QC: bearing 49°T), and is situated 5.9 km north-north-east of Saint-Donat-de-Montcalm. The landscape here is defined by the quiet persistence of water, with the lake itself, a broad, reflective surface, anchoring the immediate surroundings. Rolling hills, cloaked in a dense mosaic of spruce, fir, and birch, descend to its shores, their slopes often softened by the presence of alder thickets, the very trees that lend the lake its name. In the lingering light of late afternoon, the air often carries a faint, earthy scent of pine needles and damp soil, a perfume that speaks of the deep woods and the shadowed hollows where mosses thrive. The history of Lac-des-Aulnes is intertwined with the ebb and flow of resource extraction and the enduring spirit of its inhabitants. Once a hub for logging operations that shaped the surrounding forests, the economy has gradually shifted, with tourism now playing a significant role, drawing visitors to the lake's tranquil waters for fishing and recreation. The legacy of those earlier days can still be felt in the sturdy, well-worn cabins that dot the shoreline and in the quiet resilience of a community that has learned to adapt. The deep, clear waters of Lac-des-Aulnes themselves hold a quiet promise, reflecting the vast, indifferent sky and the enduring presence of nature.
À Lac-des-Aulnes, le paysage se déploie avec une douceur familière, où les collines doucement ondulées, parsemées d'aulnes au feuillage changeant selon les saisons, embrassent les eaux paisibles du lac.

Autrefois, le travail de la terre et l'exploitation forestière ont façonné le caractère de ce coin de Matawinie, laissant des traces subtiles dans le tissu de la vie locale, une mémoire collective transmise dans les récits échangés au fil des journées. Les rives du lac, berceau de nombreuses activités, invitent à la contemplation, rappelant l'héritage de ceux qui ont choisi de s'établir ici, cherchant une harmonie entre l'homme et la nature. Lac-des-Aulnes, par sa quiétude et sa beauté simple, offre un refuge où le temps semble s'écouler au gré des murmures du vent et du clapotis de l'eau.
