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 Notre-Dame-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.

Notre-Dame-des-Bois is a municipality in Notre-Dame-des-Bois; Le Granit, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Notre-Dame-des-Bois is located at 45.3926°N, 71.0736°W.
Notre-Dame-des-Bois sits nestled within the rugged, high-altitude folds of the landscape, defined by the imposing presence of the Plateau des Chicots. It lies 5.3 km south-east of Secteur de l'Observatoire, QC (from Secteur de l'Observatoire, QC: bearing 128°T), and is situated 14.9 km south-east of Franceville. The air here carries a crisp, thin clarity that settles over the slopes as the sun slips behind the horizon, turning the woods into a deep, bruised indigo. While the Rivière au Saumon flows with a persistent, cold ambition some 5 km away, the terrain closer to the settlement holds a quieter stillness, punctuated by the hidden, dark waters of Lac Noël resting 6 km distant. The elevation lends the region a watchful quality, as if the land itself is waiting for the seasons to turn, with the vast, protected reaches of Parc national du Mont-Mégantic looming just 9 km away to anchor the horizon. Life in Notre-Dame-des-Bois moves with a deliberate, quiet focus that reflects the demands of a high-country existence. Historically shaped by the labor of those who cleared the timber and worked the rocky, unyielding soil, the local economy remains tied to the rhythms of the forest and the land. The people of Notre-Dame-des-Bois possess a resilience carved from winters that linger longer here than in the lowlands, creating a distinct culture of self-reliance. Small details—the way woodsmoke curls from a chimney against the sharp backdrop of the hills or the sound of gravel crunching under a truck—define the daily experience of a place that finds its strength in the solitary, enduring beauty of the mountains.
Notre-Dame-des-Bois s'élève sur un sol ancien où la terre se plisse avec noblesse près du Plateau des Chicots, offrant une halte de sérénité sous un ciel qui semble toucher les crêtes. L'air y possède une limpidité cristalline, une fraîcheur qui descend des hauteurs pour envelopper les champs et les forêts d'une clarté argentée lorsque le jour décline. À quelques lieues, le Parc national du Mont-Mégantic impose sa présence majestueuse sur l'horizon, veillant sur les terres agricoles où la persévérance des hommes a façonné une identité durable. La Rivière au Saumon serpente avec discrétion à travers ce relief accidenté, tandis que le Lac Noël miroite en silence dans un repli du terrain, attirant le regard vers les profondeurs tranquilles du paysage. Dans cet espace, Notre-Dame-des-Bois préserve le rythme lent des activités rurales, porté par une lumière crépusculaire qui transforme chaque bâtisse en une silhouette rassurante. La vie s'organise ici avec une humilité qui honore l'héritage des pionniers, cultivant une relation intime avec les éléments naturels omniprésents. Cette localité demeure un refuge pour ceux qui cherchent la paix dans le silence des grands espaces québécois, là où la roche et l'eau dictent, depuis toujours, la mesure du temps.
