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 Hérouxville.
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.

Hérouxville is a parish municipality in Hérouxville; Mékinac, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Hérouxville is located at 46.6736°N, 72.6138°W.
Hérouxville sits amidst the quiet, rolling expanse of the Mauricie region, where the land holds the cool, persistent light of late afternoon like a held breath. It lies 34.7 km north-east of Domaine-du-Lac-Paterson, QC (from Domaine-du-Lac-Paterson, QC: bearing 56°T), and is situated 7.0 km south-south-west of Saint-Tite. The soil here is heavy and dark, supporting a landscape defined by its proximity to the Le Calvaire, where the horizon feels close enough to touch. Beyond the immediate fields, the Rivière Noire winds through the low-lying terrain some 6 km away, its presence felt in the damp, moss-thick air that settles after sunset. Further out, the surface of Lac à la Tortue lies 5 km distant, reflecting the sky in a mirror of slate and silver, while the distant, thunderous movement of the Chutes de Shawinigan echoes 20 km across the ridges. To the north, the vast, forested reaches of the Parc national du Canada de la Mauricie remain visible at a remove of 30 km, a dark serrated edge against the sky that anchors the geography of the region. The history of Hérouxville emerges from the stubborn persistence of those who first cleared the timber to turn the earth for agriculture, establishing a life governed by the changing seasons and the yield of the harvest. Today, the local economy continues to draw strength from this connection to the land, maintaining a steady, industrious pace that values the physical labor of building and tending. Residents often look toward the nearby natural landmarks as markers of their daily orbit, finding a sense of permanence in the way the wind carries the scent of pine and water from the surrounding woods. Life in Hérouxville favors the tangible—the grain of wood, the weight of a tool, and the clear, sharp quality of light that defines the transition from work to rest. It is a place where the architecture of the village remains simple and functional, standing as a quiet participant in the wider, wilder story of the Canadian wilderness that begins just beyond the fence line.
Hérouxville s'étire avec une simplicité robuste sur les terres planes de la Mauricie, là où le sol semble garder le silence des anciennes défrichements agricoles. À l'approche du crépuscule, une lumière dorée et oblique caresse les champs, soulignant la rigueur des lignes tracées par les premiers colons venus sculpter ce domaine forestier. Non loin de là, le Calvaire veille sur le calme des environs, rappelant aux passants la persistance des traditions qui structurent la vie quotidienne. La Rivière Noire serpente à six kilomètres, apportant une fraîcheur discrète à l'horizon, tandis que les eaux du Lac à la Tortue, situé à cinq kilomètres, conservent un miroir immobile sous le ciel changeant. À plus grande distance, les Chutes de Shawinigan grondent avec une puissance lointaine, et le Parc national du Canada de la Mauricie dessine une silhouette sauvage à trente kilomètres, ceinte par le relief accidenté du bouclier canadien. Hérouxville préserve une existence rythmée par l'alternance des travaux des champs et la clarté des matins givrés, cultivant une identité façonnée par la proximité du bois et la patience des saisons qui s'effacent les unes après les autres. Ici, la terre respire sous le poids d'une histoire laborieuse, chaque bâtiment et chaque rangée d'arbres déclinant une sérénité propre à cette contrée québécoise.

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.
