By the middle of the 19th century, forestry was the predominant economic activity of the sector. This large body of water is generally frozen from mid-November to the end of April; however, the period of safe ice traffic is usually from mid-December to the end of March. GeographyLake Péribonka is located about {{convert|140|km}} northeast of Lac Saint-Jean. It constitutes an important outgrowth of the river of the same name. {{convert|59|km}} (north-south) and {{convert|11|km}} wide, lake Péribonka covers an area of {{convert|264|km|2}}. The main hydrographic slopes near Péribonka Lake are:
The River Péribonka arrives from the north by collecting the waters of Cocoumenen and Saint-Onge. It then crosses the Onistagane Lake Proposed Biodiversity Reserve. Lake Péribonka receives the watersof the Épinette Rouge River (West side) and the rivière à la Carpe (East side). Lake Péribonka has several dozens of islands, peninsulas and bays. During the World War II, the Alcan company develops a hydroelectric plant on the Péribonka River to increase its electric power for aluminum production in Saguenay. Between 1941 and 1943, a dam was erected upstream of the "Passes Dangereuses", located about {{convert|15|km}} downstream (south) of Péribonka Lake. Thus, the area of Lake Péribonka has increased significantly. This hydroelectric infrastructure is located at the southern end of this reservoir. ToponymyFormerly, this body of water was designated "Manouan" in native language, meaning "where we collect eggs". In 1926, because of a toponymic redundancy relative to two "Manouan Lake" (including another lake located {{convert|40|km}} northeast), this body of water is renamed "Lake Péribonka" by the Commission de géographie du Québec, thus adopting the name of the river of the same name. In 1987, all similar toponyms are replaced by the officialized place name. The Montagnais have also used the name "Unistakan Shakikan", meaning "lake where we get up with load on the back".[1] The toponym Lake Péribonka was formalized on December 18, 1986 at the Bank of Place Names of the Commission de toponymie du Québec[2].
