The Lac Desprez is a fresh body of water in the watershed of ruisseau à John and Malbaie River. This body of water is located in the unorganized territory of Lalemant, in the Le Fjord-du-Saguenay Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, in the province of Quebec, in Canada.

A few secondary forest roads allow access to the Lac Desprez watershed; these roads connect to route 381 (north–south direction) which runs along the Ha! Ha! River. These roads allow forestry and recreational tourism activities.

Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.

The surface of the Rivière des Cèdres is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from mid-December to mid-March.
