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 Lac-Montreuil.
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.

Lac-Montreuil is a resort area in Saint-Maurice; Les Chenaux, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lac-Montreuil is located at 46.4942°N, 72.5917°W.
Lac-Montreuil rests in a quiet embrace near the Mont Georges, where the land rises with a modest, sturdy grace. It lies 17.2 km north-north-west of Trois-Rivières, QC (from Trois-Rivières, QC: bearing 348°T), and is situated 12.9 km east-south-east of Shawinigan. The air here holds the cooling influence of the nearby Rivière Brûlée, which winds its path through the terrain some nine kilometers away, while Lac-Montreuil itself centers the immediate horizon. At dusk, the light catches the surface of the water in a way that turns the deep blues into something resembling brushed silver, a fleeting clarity that defines the stillness of the afternoon. The proximity to the Mont Georges provides a backdrop of elevation that anchors the eye, grounding the view in the solid, unmoving presence of stone and timber. History in this region of Saint-Maurice; Les Chenaux settles into the habits of those who have long worked the land and managed the timber, keeping a pace that respects the seasonal shifts of the Canadian climate. While the Chutes de Shawinigan draw visitors to witness the power of moving water fourteen kilometers away, the life around Lac-Montreuil retains a private character, focused on the maintenance of homesteads and the quiet continuity of local labor. Notable for its persistence, the economic life here relies on an understanding of the woods and the water, passed down through generations who know exactly how the wind shifts against the slopes of the Mont Georges. The local identity remains defined not by grand gestures, but by the steady work of people who find their contentment in the predictable, daily tasks of a life lived close to the earth.
Lac-Montreuil s'étire dans une langueur contemplative, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous l'ombre portée du Mont Georges. La lumière du crépuscule y dépose des reflets d'argent sur les eaux tranquilles, transformant chaque ondulation en une confidence silencieuse. À neuf kilomètres de distance, la Rivière Brûlée poursuit son cours discret, murmurant aux rives boisées les secrets d'une géographie façonnée par la rudesse et la patience. Non loin, l'écho lointain des Chutes de Shawinigan rappelle la force vive des éléments qui ont sculpté ce relief, imposant une cadence solennelle à l'existence des habitants. Ici, la vie se mesure à la respiration des forêts environnantes et à l'immobilité propre aux terres du Saint-Maurice. Les hommes et les femmes qui habitent les abords de Lac-Montreuil connaissent le poids des hivers et la douceur brève des étés, cultivant une relation intime avec un sol qui exige autant qu'il offre. La présence du Mont Georges veille sur ce paysage, offrant un repère immuable contre lequel se détachent les silhouettes des habitations, tandis que le ciel, immense, semble descendre pour se confondre avec l'horizon. Chaque jour, la sérénité des lieux impose un rythme lent, loin de l'agitation, où l'histoire se lit dans la pierre et le mouvement lent des eaux.
