TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Avoca.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Avoca is a locality in Grenville-sur-la-Rouge; Argenteuil, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Avoca is located at 45.7167°N, 74.7000°W.
Avoca rests within the rugged, forested folds of the landscape, defined by its proximity to the Colline Avery and the steady, persistent presence of the Rivière Rouge. It lies 14.3 km north-north-west of Hawkesbury, QC (from Hawkesbury, QC: bearing 328°T), and is situated 15.3 km east-north-east of Fassett. The weight of the earth here feels ancient and heavy, particularly when the low, amber light of late afternoon catches the water and turns the river into a ribbon of hammered copper. Nearby, the stillness of Lac Nicholas offers a contrast to the kinetic energy of the river, while the distant, rushing roar of the Chutes à Pesant reminds one that the land is constantly shifting and carving its own path through the stone. Beyond these immediate contours, the expansive reach of Parc national de Plaisance serves as a reminder of the vast, wild stretches that define this region of Grenville-sur-la-Rouge. History in Avoca lingers in the weathered wood of older structures and the quiet persistence of those who work the land, carrying forward an economy long shaped by the timber industry and the demands of a demanding, rocky soil. Life moves with the seasons, dictated by the turning of the leaves and the encroaching frost, where the daily labor of residents remains focused on the practical realities of a life lived close to the elements. The air holds a crisp, sharp clarity, smelling of damp cedar and slate, which seems to sharpen the senses and sharpen the edges of the day. Whether tending to the land or navigating the winding roads that skirt the Colline Avery, the people of Avoca maintain a relationship with their surroundings that is as steady and enduring as the flow of the Rivière Rouge itself.
Avoca s’étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives de la Rivière Rouge, là où le terrain s’incline doucement vers le lit du cours d’eau. Dominé par le relief protecteur de la Colline Avery, ce secteur de Grenville-sur-la-Rouge conserve une intimité minérale, une atmosphère de terre labourée et de forêts anciennes qui semblent retenir le souffle du vent. La lumière déclinante du soir accroche les reflets ambrés de la Rivière Rouge, tandis que l’air frais rappelle la proximité du Lac Nicholas, situé à trois kilomètres de là. L’histoire de ces terres se lit dans les fondations robustes des bâtisses agricoles et dans le silence patient des plaines environnantes, loin du tumulte des grands centres. À dix-neuf kilomètres, les Chutes à Pesant ponctuent le silence de leur rugissement discret, alors que le Parc national de Plaisance, distant de trente-six kilomètres, étend l’horizon sauvage de cette région d’Argenteuil. La vie quotidienne à Avoca se mesure au rythme des récoltes et au murmure constant de l’eau contre les berges, offrant une présence persistante à ceux qui habitent ce paysage singulier. Chaque sentier traversant les environs semble porter la mémoire des premières occupations du sol, transformant le quotidien en une suite de gestes simples, profondément liés à la géographie physique qui définit ce territoire québécois.
