Brownvale is a hamlet in northern Alberta, Canada within the Municipal District of Peace No. 135.[2] It is located on Highway 737 less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) off Highway 2, approximately 48 kilometres (30 mi) southwest of the Town of Peace River and 20 kilometres (12 mi) southwest of Grimshaw. Duncan's First Nation reserve is less than 5 km (3.1 mi) to the south.
