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 Grande-Vallée.
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.

Grande-Vallée is a municipality in Grande-Vallée; La Côte-de-Gaspé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Grande-Vallée is located at 49.2261°N, 65.1250°W.
Grande-Vallée occupies a rugged strip of coastline where the land rises sharply into the Montagne de la Citadelle before dropping toward the cold, expansive waters of the St. Lawrence. It lies 40.0 km north-east of Murdochville, QC (from Murdochville, QC: bearing 42°T), and is situated 14.8 km west of Pointe-à-la-Frégate. The Rivière de la Grande Vallée cuts a definitive path through the terrain, its flow carving a passage that gives the settlement its name and its orientation. Near the edges of the higher ground, the air holds a persistent, salt-heavy chill that clings to the spruce and fir trees even on the clearest afternoons. Inland, the landscape settles into a quieter solitude, marked by the presence of Lac du Rocher, which sits tucked away about 4 km from the shore as a silent, darkened mirror of the surrounding hills. The history of Grande-Vallée remains anchored in the relentless labor of those who first harvested the timber and cast nets into the deep, unpredictable currents of the St. Lawrence. While the economy has shifted away from its early reliance on the sawmills that once defined the riverbanks, the people here maintain a quiet, pragmatic dedication to the work that keeps a coastal outpost functioning. Daily life moves with the tide, influenced by the grey, shifting light that settles over the Montagne de la Citadelle as evening approaches. Traditions persist not through grand gestures, but through the consistent maintenance of homes and docks, ensuring that Grande-Vallée persists as a distinct, resilient presence against the backdrop of the northern woods and the sea.
Grande-Vallée se dresse fièrement sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin rencontre la rudesse altière de la Montagne de la Citadelle. Les eaux de la Rivière de la Grande Vallée serpentent vers l'estuaire, charriant les souvenirs d'une lignée de bâtisseurs qui surent dompter les courants et les forêts. À quelques lieues de là, le Lac du Rocher demeure un miroir immobile, veillant sur les terres intérieures dans un silence que seule la brise marine vient troubler. La lumière du crépuscule s’attarde sur le relief accidenté, dorant les pentes escarpées et les toits qui font face à l’immensité du large. Ici, l’économie a longtemps battu au rythme des scieries et de l’exploitation forestière, façonnant une identité vigoureuse, forgée par le labeur quotidien et une fraternité indéfectible face aux assauts de l’hiver. Grande-Vallée conserve dans sa mémoire le travail acharné des pionniers, une persévérance qui se lit encore dans la droiture des maisons et l’agencement des rues plongeant vers les quais. La vie y suit une cadence apaisée, rythmée par les marées et les saisons qui colorent les feuillus, offrant aux regards une beauté austère mais d'une grande noblesse, celle des espaces où la terre s'incline avec humilité devant la puissance du fleuve.
