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 Boischatel.
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.

Boischatel is a municipality in Boischatel; La Côte-de-Beaupré, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Boischatel is located at 46.8972°N, 71.1397°W.
Boischatel rests upon the sloping edge of the Côte de la Ferme, where the land tilts toward the salt-tinged expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 10.6 km north-north-east of Québec, QC (from Québec, QC: bearing 29°T), and is situated 4.7 km north-east of Beauport. The Rivière Montmorency marks the western boundary, its currents carrying the cold, clear urgency of the hinterland toward the wide basin below. In the quiet hours of late afternoon, the light catches the moisture rising from the banks, casting a silver sheen over the terrain that turns the fields into shimmering plates of grey and gold. Beyond the immediate reach of the shore, the Réservoir des Marches Naturelles holds a stillness that contrasts with the rhythmic pulse of the tides. Further along the coastal stretch, the Chutes du Sault à la Puce marks the landscape with a distant, persistent roar, reminding those who dwell in Boischatel of the power inherent in the water that shapes their horizon. Settlement in Boischatel grew from a base of agriculture and timber, drawing strength from the fertile terraces that rise steadily from the riverfront. The local economy has evolved from these primary industries into a residential character that values its proximity to the natural waterways while maintaining a steady, industrious pace. The spirit of the place lives in the sturdy architecture of its homes and the way the morning mist clings to the trees along the Rivière Montmorency before the sun fully ascends. Life here follows the turn of the seasons, with the inhabitants observing the transformation of the slopes as winter frost gives way to the verdant push of spring. It is a location defined by the interplay between the elevation of the Côte de la Ferme and the vast, moving presence of the St. Lawrence, anchoring every daily task to the physical weight of the earth.
Boischatel s’étire avec une patience tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le terrain s’incline doucement vers les eaux vastes et froides. Les vents qui remontent le fleuve portent une humeur changeante, modifiant la lumière sur la Côte de la Ferme et transformant chaque fin de journée en une étude de gris bleutés et d’or pâli. La Rivière Montmorency sculpte les limites de ce territoire, offrant un murmure constant qui accompagne les gestes quotidiens des résidents. À quelques kilomètres, le Réservoir des Marches Naturelles retient une sérénité immobile, tandis que plus loin, les Chutes du Sault à la Puce rappellent la force vive du relief qui définit Boischatel. Cette terre, marquée par une longue tradition agricole, conserve dans ses chemins une intimité pudique, loin de l’agitation des grands centres. Le sol respire ici une certaine rigueur héritée des anciens, une manière de vivre qui se plie aux caprices du climat avec une politesse silencieuse. Les maisons, bien posées sur ce socle solide, semblent guetter le passage des navires sur le chenal immense, un horizon que rien ne vient troubler. La présence de l’eau, omniprésente et souveraine, dicte le rythme de l’existence, faisant de chaque heure passée dans ce paysage une observation attentive de la nature et de ses humeurs.
