Lac Brochet 197A[2] (Chipewyan: ᑕᐤᕊ ᕤᐧᐁ, Dahlu T’ua) is a Dene Indian reserve of the Northlands Denesuline First Nation, located in the boreal forest of northern Manitoba, Canada. It is situated on the north shore of Lac Brochet, located 240 km (150 mi) northwest of the city of Thompson.[2]

The reserve contains the unincorporated community of Lac Brochet (58°37′12″N 101°29′02″W / 58.62000°N 101.48389°W / 58.62000; -101.48389[5]), which is the administrative centre of the Northlands Denesuline First Nation.[2][6] There are no permanent roads connecting Lac Brochet with other parts of Manitoba (there are some that are passable only during the winter). Many residents travel using the Lac Brochet Airport located near town.

Petit Casimir Memorial School[7] is the K-12 school in the community.
