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 Maddington Falls.
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.

Maddington Falls is a municipality in Maddington Falls; Arthabaska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Maddington Falls is located at 46.2166°N, 72.1421°W.
Maddington Falls holds its own against the steady, insistent push of the Rivière Bécancour as it carves through the land near the Plateau Laval. It lies 22.8 km north-west of Victoriaville, QC (from Victoriaville, QC: bearing 322°T), and is situated 1.3 km north-north-west of Daveluyville. The water finds its momentum at Chutes Maddington, where the current fractures against the stone, casting a fine, cool mist that clings to the air even on the driest afternoons. A short distance away, the quiet presence of Lac Ginette offers a different stillness, its surface often mirroring the shifting clouds that drift across this corner of the province. The landscape here possesses a raw, unadorned honesty, where the weight of the water against the bedrock defines the character of the ground itself. Life in Maddington Falls persists with a quiet diligence, rooted in the agricultural rhythms that have long shaped the surrounding fields. While the distant Réserve écologique Léon-Provancher preserves a more untamed state of nature, the local history here is marked by the modest, persistent industry of those who have worked the banks of the river for generations. The economy remains tethered to the land’s capacity, with the sound of the water providing a constant, low-frequency pulse to the daily labor. People move through their tasks with an awareness of the changing seasons, recognizing that the light at dusk has a way of sharpening the silhouettes of the trees against the horizon, signaling the end of another day in Maddington Falls.
Maddington Falls se déploie dans une langueur particulière où la Rivière Bécancour sculpte lentement le socle rocheux de son lit, offrant aux promeneurs la vision pérenne des Chutes Maddington. Le paysage, marqué par la proximité du Plateau Laval, conserve une dignité austère que le crépuscule vient adoucir, lorsque la lumière déclinante se fragmente sur l’écume vive. À une courte distance, le Lac Ginette demeure une présence silencieuse, miroir sombre et immobile dans le relief environnant, tandis que le souvenir de la Réserve écologique Léon-Provancher plane sur cette étendue géographique comme une promesse de terres préservées. Maddington Falls cultive cette relation intime avec une nature qui ne s'apprivoise jamais tout à fait, préférant le murmure persistant du courant aux rumeurs du monde. Les habitants, habitués à ce rythme imposé par la géologie locale, façonnent leur existence entre les terres agricoles et les rives escarpées, perpétuant des habitudes transmises dans la discrétion des jours. Ici, l’air transporte une humidité fine, chargée de l’odeur de la pierre mouillée et des forêts denses, offrant une sensation de permanence qui défie les agitations extérieures, ancrant chaque regard dans l’immensité paisible de ces paysages québécois.
