Lake Kipawa (in French: "Lac Kipawa") is a lake in far south-west Quebec, Canada, near the border with Ontario, north of Témiscaming, Quebec.

Bordering the lake are the communities of Kipawa, Laniel, and the Keboawek Reserve. The lake is popular with fishermen for its walleye and northern pike abundance, as well as a supply of trout. Various lodges bordering the lake offer hunting and fishing tours and accommodations.

Lake Kipawa was the epicenter of the 2000 Kipawa earthquake.
