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 Le Hameau-des-Bois.
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.

Le Hameau-des-Bois is a residential area in Neuville; Portneuf, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Hameau-des-Bois is located at 46.7350°N, 71.6700°W.
Le Hameau-des-Bois rests upon a quiet rise of land that overlooks the wide, shifting expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 8.6 km north-east of Donnacona, QC (from Donnacona, QC: bearing 36°T), and is situated 3.1 km south-east of Pont-Rouge. The terrain falls away toward the Rivière Jacques-Cartier, where the water pulls at the silt and stones with a persistent, low-frequency hum. Near the imposing prominence of Le Cabouron, the air holds a distinct sharpness, carrying the scent of damp earth and river salt that lingers long after the sun retreats behind the trees. A mere two kilometers away, the stillness of Lac Henri provides a contrast to the restless currents of the nearby river, offering a mirror for the grey, heavy clouds that often drift in from the estuary. In the evening, the light turns a bruised, metallic violet, catching the edges of the high banks and turning the grasses into shivering blades of silver. Historically, the lifeblood of Le Hameau-des-Bois has been tied to the fertile, stubborn soil and the proximity of the waterways that dictated the movement of goods and people since the earliest days of settlement in Neuville. Farming remains a quiet, private endeavor here, with smallholdings tucked into the folds of the landscape, producing a harvest that reflects the lean, demanding character of the climate. The pace of existence is governed by the turning of the seasons and the cycle of the tides, rather than the frantic pulse of industrial centers. A visitor might notice how the people observe the water with a practiced, watchful eye, recognizing that the river is both a neighbor and a silent, encroaching force that defines the boundaries of their world.
Le Hameau-des-Bois s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose sa respiration ample et glacée à la terre de Neuville. À proximité du Cabouron, le relief accuse une inclinaison singulière, sculptant un horizon qui semble guetter le passage des navires. L’eau sombre de la Rivière Jacques-Cartier serpente non loin, charriant les secrets des terres intérieures vers l’immensité maritime, tandis que le Lac Henri, tapi à deux kilomètres, offre une pause de silence immobile dans la topographie boisée du secteur. Les demeures de Le Hameau-des-Bois se tournent vers cette lumière changeante qui, lors des crépuscules d'automne, enveloppe le rivage d'une teinte cuivrée, presque irréelle. L’histoire du lieu se lit dans cette relation persistante avec le courant, une alliance entre la rigueur du climat québécois et la présence indomptable des eaux. Ici, le quotidien suit le rythme des marées et la lenteur des saisons, loin du tumulte des grands centres, préservant une identité façonnée par la proximité immédiate de ces éléments liquides. Chaque souffle d'air chargé d'embruns rappelle l'héritage de ceux qui, depuis des générations, ont choisi de bâtir leur existence sur cette bordure étroite, entre la force tranquille du fleuve et la profondeur des terres.
