- Cowichan Lake is a large freshwater lake located on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It is located along the Cowichan Valley in the Cowichan Valley Regional District, with its eastern shore about 28 km (17 mi) west of Duncan, British Columbia. Cowichan Lake is about 30 km (19 mi) in length, running mostly from west to east, and is about 4 km (2.5 mi) wide at its widest point. The lake is also the source of the Cowichan River. Cowichan Lake has several communities along its shores. The town of Lake Cowichan is located at the east end of the lake, at the start of the Cowichan River, and is the largest community. Along the south side of the lake are the communities of Mesachie Lake and Honeymoon Bay, and also Gordon Bay Provincial Park. On the north shore is the community of Youbou. The Cowichan Valley was once a thriving lumber centre in British Columbia. In the past, two major railroads had spur lines to and around parts of the lake. With the change in the logging industry, these rail lines have now been abandoned by the railroads and are now part of a major public trail system which leads eastward toward the lower end of the Cowichan Valley. The lake area is largely undeveloped because of the extensive logging by timber companies holding the land surrounding the lake. Currently there are several development projects at new locations around the lake. (en)

Si trova lungo la Cowichan Valley nel Distretto regionale di Cowichan Valley, con la sua sponda orientale a circa 28 km (17 mi) ad Ovest di Duncan. Cowichan Lake ha una lunghezza di circa 30 km (19 mi), corre principalmente da Ovest a Est ed ha una larghezza di circa 4 km (2,5 mi) nel suo punto più largo. Il lago è anche la sorgente del Cowichan River. Cowichan Lake ha diversi insediamenti lungo le sue sponde. La cittadina di Lake Cowichan è situata all'estremità Est end del lago, dove comincia il Cowichan River ed è l'insediamento più grande. Lungo il lato Sud del lago ci sono gli insediamenti di e ed anche il Gordon Bay Provincial Park. Sulla sponda Nord c'è l'insediamento di . La Cowichan Valley era un tempo un fiorente centro di produzione di legname nella Columbia Britannica. In passato, due importanti ferrovie avevano linee verso e intorno a parti del lago. Con i cambiamenti nell'industria del disboscamento, queste linee ferroviarie attualmente sono state abbandonate dalle ferrovie e ora fanno parte di un importante sistema di sentieri pubblici che conduce a Est verso la parte inferiore della Cowichan Valley. L'area del lago è, in gran parte, poco edificata a causa dell'ampio disboscamento da parte di aziende del settore del legname che detengono il terreno circostante il lago. Attualmente ci sono diversi progetti di sviluppo in nuove località intorno al lago. (it)
