The lake Tourilli is a freshwater body at the head of the Tourilli River, flowing in the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve. This lake is located entirely in the unorganized territory of Lac-Croche, in the La Jacques-Cartier Regional County Municipality, administrative region of the Capitale-Nationale, in province of Quebec, in Canada.

The Lac Tourilli watershed is served by a few secondary forest roads for the purposes of forestry and recreational tourism activities.

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

The surface of Lac Tourilli is generally frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March; safe circulation on the ice is generally done from the end of December to the beginning of March.
