This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Burnet, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Burnet and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Burnet.
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.

Burnet is a hamlet in Chelsea; Les Collines-de-l'Outaouais, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Burnet is located at 45.5681°N, 75.8500°W.
Burnet sits in a quiet reach of the landscape where the land rises to meet the Mont Fortune, holding its position along the Rivière Gatineau. It lies 19.0 km north-west of Gatineau, QC (from Gatineau, QC: bearing 325°T), and is situated 5.5 km west-north-west of Cantley. The earth here possesses a heavy, ancient density, and when the sun begins to retreat behind the slopes, the light clings to the water of the Rivière Gatineau as if reluctant to leave the deep, dark channels. Nearby, Lac des Méandres rests in the stillness of the woods, its surface mirroring the shifting grey of the sky, while the distant, steady pulse of Rideau Falls reminds one that the water is always moving toward a larger purpose. Burnet feels like a place where the air holds the chill of the highlands, sharp and clean, suggesting that the terrain has long dictated the quiet habits of those who dwell within its borders. The history of Burnet is bound to the currents of the river, which once served as the primary artery for the trade and movement that defined the early development of this stretch of Quebec. While the modern economy has shifted toward quieter pursuits, the echoes of the logging era remain present in the way the local architecture leans into the rugged topography of the Mont Fortune. Residents move through their days with a steady, pragmatic grace, mirroring the persistence of the water that flows past their doorsteps. Even now, the cultural character of Burnet reflects a deep, enduring connection to the river, a bond that persists despite the changing seasons and the slow, deliberate turn of the years.
Burnet se déploie avec une humilité certaine sous la garde silencieuse du Mont Fortune, là où les terres basses rencontrent l'ondulation persistante de la Rivière Gatineau. Dans cette étendue de Chelsea, la lumière déclinante du soir s'étire sur les champs, révélant une topographie marquée par une rudesse ancienne qui a jadis dicté les premiers travaux de défrichage. Les résidents observent le courant qui s'écoule, portant avec lui le souvenir des activités forestières qui ont façonné les premières installations humaines le long de ces rives escarpées. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac des Méandres impose sa présence paisible, offrant un contraste de calme face aux eaux plus vives de la rivière, tandis que le fracas lointain des chutes Rideau, bien que distant, rappelle la puissance indomptable des éléments naturels environnants. La vie à Burnet se règle sur cette géographie exigeante, où le passage des jours se mesure à la respiration du terrain et à la fraîcheur qui descend des hauteurs boisées. Les bâtisseurs d'autrefois ont su lire ce sol, transformant les contraintes du relief en un mode de vie qui privilégie la solitude et le lien étroit avec la terre. La présence constante de la Rivière Gatineau demeure le pivot invisible de cet espace, liant chaque parcelle de terre à un héritage fait de labeur et de patience devant l'horizon.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
