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 Madeleine-Centre.
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.

Madeleine-Centre is a village in Sainte-Madeleine-de-la-Rivière-Madeleine; La Haute-Gaspésie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Madeleine-Centre is located at 49.2481°N, 65.3522°W.
Madeleine-Centre clings to the rugged northern edge of the Gaspé Peninsula, where the land falls abruptly into the cold, grey expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 33.7 km north-north-east of Murdochville, QC (from Murdochville, QC: bearing 18°T), and is situated 14.1 km east of Gros-Morne. The terrain rises sharply from the shoreline toward the Montagne de la Citadelle, a sentinel of rock that watches over the houses clustered along the water. Nearby, the Petite rivière Madeleine carves a narrow passage through the earth, its movement a constant, metallic murmur against the silence of the hills. Just a short distance inland, the quiet surface of Lac Alexandre reflects the changing light of the sky, holding a stillness that contrasts with the restless salt-crusted winds blowing off the gulf. At dusk, the horizon turns a bruised violet, and the air carries the sharp, clean scent of spruce and brine, grounding the senses in the stark reality of the coast. Life in Madeleine-Centre has long been defined by the proximity of the water and the necessity of endurance in a landscape that offers little quarter. Historically, the inhabitants looked to the sea for their livelihood, navigating the cycles of the fishery that dictated the pulse of the seasons. While the local economy has shifted, the identity of Madeleine-Centre stays rooted in this maritime heritage, visible in the weathered docks and the resilient architecture that defies the heavy winter snows. People move through their days with a steady, deliberate focus, acknowledging the vastness of the surroundings while tending to the small, essential tasks of maintenance and survival. There is a quiet pride in the way the village persists, balanced between the immovable weight of the Montagne de la Citadelle and the indifferent, deep-running currents of the St. Lawrence.
Madeleine-Centre s’étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin rencontre la rudesse altière de la Montagne de la Citadelle. Dans ce repli de la Haute-Gaspésie, la lumière déclinante du soir dépose sur les eaux une nacre changeante, tandis que les habitants observent le mouvement incessant des marées. La Petite rivière Madeleine serpente à travers le relief, marquant de son tracé argenté la topographie singulière de ce territoire tourné vers l’immensité maritime. À peine à un kilomètre de distance, le Lac Alexandre repose dans une quiétude minérale, gardien discret des terres intérieures. L’économie de Madeleine-Centre puise sa substance dans cette proximité avec l’estuaire, héritière d’une tradition où le labeur se mesure à l’aune des vents et des courants. Les maisons, habituées aux caprices du climat, semblent guetter l’horizon avec une patience héritée des anciens. Chaque jour, le rythme de la vie quotidienne se règle sur le ressac, cette respiration lente du large qui sculpte les esprits autant que les falaises. En observant la silhouette de la Montagne de la Citadelle qui domine le littoral, il devient facile de percevoir la ténacité nécessaire pour habiter ces rivages où la terre québécoise se jette avec une telle ferveur dans l’inconnu bleuté de l’Atlantique.
