This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pierrefonds, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Pierrefonds and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
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 Pierrefonds.
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.

Pierrefonds is a administrative sector in Montréal; Montréal, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Pierrefonds is located at 45.4778°N, 73.8583°W.
Pierrefonds occupies a singular position along the expansive shore of Lac Saint-Louis, where the horizon meets the sky in a wide, shimmering embrace. It lies 20.2 km east of Kanesatake, QC (from Kanesatake, QC: bearing 92°T), and is situated 12.1 km south-west of Laval. The air here holds a crisp clarity that catches the light at dusk, turning the water into a sheet of hammered silver that reflects the distant, quiet outline of the Mont Saint-Eustache. Residents find their days marked by the subtle shifts in the breeze, which carries the scent of damp earth and the cooling influence of the nearby Rivière à l'Orme, located about 7 km away. While the urban pulse of Montréal exerts its gravity, the land itself maintains a distinct, grounded character, anchored by the proximity of Parc national d'Oka just 13 km to the west. Those who walk the edges of the shore often find themselves watching the movement of the light, observing how the afternoon sun illuminates the reeds and the shoreline with a fleeting, golden intensity before the evening settles in. History in Pierrefonds emerges from the steady growth of residential life and the expansion of local commerce that has transformed the landscape over the decades. The economy thrives on the energy of people moving between their homes and the local businesses that line the main arteries, creating a functional, busy environment that feels both contemporary and settled. Notable landmarks often draw visitors toward the water, while the memory of the land’s previous uses informs the way the streets are laid out today. Though the roar of the modern world is present, a sense of stillness persists, perhaps influenced by the knowledge that the Chutes Saint-Louis, located about 19 km away, continue their steady, eternal descent. People go about their errands with a focus that mirrors the purposeful, forward-moving current of the landscape, finding beauty in the routine interactions that define life in this particular corner of the island.
Pierrefonds s’étire sur les rives du Lac Saint-Louis, là où la lumière déclinante du soir semble suspendre le mouvement des eaux. Le terrain, marqué par une topographie douce, porte en lui les échos d'une terre autrefois défrichée par des mains patientes, loin du tumulte urbain. À l’horizon, la silhouette du Mont Saint-Eustache se dessine contre le ciel, veillant sur ce paysage dont la quiétude est accentuée par la proximité de la Rivière à l’Orme, laquelle serpente paisiblement à sept kilomètres de distance. Le promeneur attentif saisit ici la persistance d'une ruralité ancienne ayant cédé la place à une vie domestique apaisée, tandis que le Parc national d’Oka, à treize kilomètres, offre une respiration forestière à ceux qui cherchent la solitude des bois. Plus loin, le fracas lointain des Chutes Saint-Louis, à dix-neuf kilomètres, rappelle la puissance brute des éléments naturels qui encadrent cette géographie particulière. Pierrefonds conserve une identité singulière, forgée par cette proximité constante avec les grands espaces fluviaux et les terres fertiles. Le vent qui remonte du Lac Saint-Louis apporte une fraîcheur constante, modulant l'atmosphère de chaque rue résidentielle et transformant les crépuscules en moments de contemplation pure, où le silence devient presque palpable entre les maisons et les arbres.
