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 Plage-Nando.
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.

Plage-Nando is a resort in Saint-Raymond; Portneuf, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Plage-Nando is located at 46.8939°N, 71.8617°W.
Plage-Nando sits cradled within the rugged expanse of the Mont Laura-Plamondon, where the land rises in stubborn, forested tiers above the rushing currents of the Bras du Nord. It lies 26.4 km north-north-west of Donnacona, QC (from Donnacona, QC: bearing 339°T), and is situated 2.2 km west of Saint-Raymond. The air here carries a persistent, cool dampness that rises from the river, clinging to the needles of spruce and fir long after the morning mist has retreated. When the light shifts at dusk, the water takes on a bruised, metallic sheen, reflecting the dense wall of trees that crowds the banks. Nearby, the stillness of Lac Marcel rests five kilometers away in the quiet interior, while the thunderous descent of Chutes Ford serves as a distant, rhythmic pulse nine kilometers to the north. The character of Plage-Nando remains shaped by the enduring presence of the Bras du Nord, which historically served as a conduit for the timber that fueled the early development of Portneuf. While the heavy industry of the past has softened into a quieter reliance on the land, the local economy draws its strength from the seasonal turns of the forest and the visitors who seek the solitude of the Mont Laura-Plamondon. Daily life follows the patient cycles of the seasons, moving between the intense labor of the harvest and the long, interior focus of the winter months. In the brief, golden heat of summer, the sound of the river dominates, a constant reminder of the elemental forces that defined the lives of those who first cleared these slopes.
Plage-Nando déploie ses rives paisibles sur les terres du Mont Laura-Plamondon, là où le Bras du Nord imprime son rythme lent aux terres de Portneuf. À cet endroit précis, le sol garde la mémoire d’une terre travaillée par des générations d’hommes ayant appris à lire le relief accidenté et les forêts denses qui entourent le secteur de Saint-Raymond. Lorsque le soleil décline, une lumière cuivrée s'attarde sur les eaux du Bras du Nord, transformant le paysage en un espace de silence où seul le souffle du vent dans les arbres brise la quiétude. Les habitants, habitués à la rigueur d’un climat qui façonne les caractères autant que les récoltes, entretiennent une relation intime avec la topographie des lieux. À quelques kilomètres, la solitude du Lac Marcel et la puissance sourde des Chutes Ford rappellent la force brute d’une nature sauvage qui encercle Plage-Nando sans jamais la dompter tout à fait. La vie quotidienne y suit la cadence des éléments, chaque geste étant dicté par la proximité des bois et le courant des eaux. Plage-Nando demeure ainsi ce havre discret, une parcelle de terre où l'on sent, sous la semelle, la rudesse et la beauté d'un territoire qui refuse de se laisser oublier par ceux qui le parcourent.
