Der Lac Blanc („Weißer See“) ist mit einer Größe von 29 Hektar der größte See auf der Ostseite der Vogesen im Département Haut-Rhin. Der eiszeitliche Gebirgssee liegt auf einer Höhe von 1052 m oberhalb von Urbeis (französisch Orbey) und Kaysersberg im Elsass.

Den Namen "Weißer See" verdankt er dem hellen Quarzsand auf dem Seegrund.
