Bouchet lake (or Lake of Bouchet; French: Lac du Bouchet) is located in Haute-Loire, France, near Le Puy-en-Velay, in the Devès massif. It is about 1.6 km (one mile) north of the village of Le Bouchet-Saint-Nicolas. It is situated within the territories of the communes of Cayres and Le Bouchet-Saint-Nicolas.

Bouchet is a crater lake formed from an old volcano, and thus roughly circular. It is a little more than half a mile from rim to rim and surrounded by woodlands. It is at an altitude of 1,208 m (3,963 feet).
