Albreda Lake is a lake in Thompson-Nicola Regional District in the Interior region of British Columbia, Canada.[1][2][4] It is in the Pacific Ocean drainage basin.

The primary inflow, at the northeast, and outflow, at the southeast, is the Albreda River, which flows via the North Thompson River, the Thompson River and the Fraser River to the Pacific Ocean.[2][1][4]

The locality of Albreda[5] is 900 metres (3,000 ft) to the north, and both British Columbia Highway 5 and the Canadian National Railway transcontinental main line (used by freight traffic and the Via Rail Canadian train) pass by to the east of the eastern shore of the lake.
