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 Vieux-Nord.
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 Vieux-Nord is a neighbourhood in Sherbrooke; Estrie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Le Vieux-Nord is located at 45.4050°N, 71.9083°W.
Le Vieux-Nord rests with a quiet composure within the Plateau Marquette, a neighborhood that holds the steady, enduring character of Sherbrooke. It lies 1.2 km west of Sherbrooke, QC (from Sherbrooke, QC: bearing 275°T), and is situated 14.2 km north of Waterville. The land here finds its cadence against the flowing currents of the Rivière Saint-François, which carves a path through the terrain and defines the low-lying edges of the sector. As the light fades at dusk, a soft, amber glow settles over the residential streets, catching the brickwork of older homes and grounding the neighborhood in a stillness that feels both deliberate and ancient. While Lac des Nations sits only 2 km away, offering a distinct shift in the horizon, the immediate atmosphere of Le Vieux-Nord remains defined by its established tree-lined avenues and the persistent, low hum of a city that values its own history. The presence of Parc national du Mont-Orford, roughly 25 km to the west, acts as a distant anchor for the region’s topography, yet the local experience is dominated by the intimate scale of neighborhood life and the crisp, clean air that drifts off the water. The evolution of Le Vieux-Nord mirrors the broader trajectory of Estrie, where the early reliance on industrial enterprise gradually shifted toward the intellectual and service-based vitality of a modern university hub. This sector houses residents who move with a purposeful grace, balancing the demands of nearby institutions with a deep-seated appreciation for the architectural heritage that lines the streets. The cultural life here is understated, favoring the quiet accumulation of daily routines—the morning walk toward a local café or the seasonal preparation of gardens—over grand spectacle. Even as the economy has transitioned away from its original industrial roots, Le Vieux-Nord maintains a refined sense of identity, characterized by a persistent stability that allows the neighborhood to remain a vital, living piece of the larger landscape.
Le Vieux-Nord s'étire avec une dignité tranquille sur le Plateau Marquette, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle avant que le jour ne décline sur les rives de la Rivière Saint-François. Cette étendue, marquée par une architecture robuste qui rappelle les ambitions des bâtisseurs d'autrefois, puise sa force dans une géographie qui refuse l'agitation, préférant le calme des façades de briques aux mouvements brusques du monde moderne. À peine à deux kilomètres, le Lac des Nations offre un miroir aux reflets changeants, tandis que le Parc national du Mont-Orford, dressé à vingt-cinq kilomètres, dessine une ligne sombre et protectrice contre l'horizon. Les résidents de Le Vieux-Nord circulent dans ces rues avec une habitude douce, habités par une mémoire qui lie les anciens vergers aux nécessités de l'urbanité actuelle. La lumière de fin d'après-midi glisse sur les pentes douces du secteur, révélant une texture de vie où le labeur quotidien s'apaise au contact de l'air frais montant de la rivière. Ici, la permanence se lit dans l'alignement des arbres et la solidité des fondations, offrant une présence apaisante qui résiste aux modes passagères, ancrée dans la réalité tangible d'un sol qui a vu passer bien des générations sans jamais perdre son allure sereine.
