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 Giguère.
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.

Giguère is a residential area in Château-Richer; La Côte-de-Beaupré, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Giguère is located at 46.9322°N, 71.0583°W.
Giguère rests upon the fertile reach of the La Grande Côte, where the land slants toward the St. Lawrence with a persistent, quiet weight. It lies 12.5 km south-west of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC (from Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC: bearing 222°T), and is situated 12.0 km north-east of Beauport. The Rivière du Petit Pré carves a narrow, insistent path through the terrain, its banks gathering the morning mist that clings to the low-lying fields before the sun fully clears the horizon. Life in Giguère unfolds in the shadow of the St. Lawrence, where the air carries a sharp, salt-edged clarity that defines the edges of the day. Only six kilometers away, the Chutes du Sault à la Puce marks the landscape with a constant, rhythmic tumble of water, while the quieter waters of the Réservoir des Marches Naturelles wait nine kilometers inland, holding the stillness of the interior. Agriculture has long defined the character of Giguère, with its roots deep in the traditional land-grant patterns that once governed the La Grande Côte. The local economy persists in a dialogue with the soil and the river, maintaining a steady, industrious pace that values the cyclical nature of the harvest. Families who have worked these strips of earth for generations continue to manage the land, honoring a heritage that stays grounded in the physical labor of the region. Even as modern demands shift the focus of Château-Richer, Giguère retains a distinct, enduring presence, defined by the way the light catches the silvered grasses at the river’s edge and the enduring, practical grace of those who call this stretch of Quebec home.
Giguère déploie ses demeures sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le La Grande Côte s'incline doucement vers les eaux vastes et froides. Dans cet espace, la Rivière du Petit Pré trace un sillon tranquille, irriguant les terres basses d'une vitalité ancienne que les labours perpétuent depuis les premiers temps de la colonisation française. La lumière du crépuscule s’étire avec langueur sur le relief, révélant la silhouette des habitations qui semblent guetter l’horizon maritime. À quelques lieues, le grondement sourd des Chutes du Sault à la Puce rappelle la force vive des courants dévalant le plateau, tandis que plus loin, le Réservoir des Marches Naturelles impose son calme immobile aux confins de l'horizon. Giguère vit au rythme d'une agriculture tenace, héritière des traditions de la Côte-de-Beaupré, où chaque parcelle de terre raconte une patience forgée par les vents du large. Le sol, travaillé avec une rigueur austère, exhale une odeur de terre humide et de sel marin, liant indissociablement l'existence des habitants à la géographie de ce littoral québécois. Ici, le ciel immense pèse sur les champs, transformant chaque fin de journée en une lente méditation sur la persistance des êtres face à l'immensité du fleuve.
