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 Portneuf.
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.

Portneuf is a town in Portneuf; Portneuf, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Portneuf is located at 46.6908°N, 71.8889°W.
Portneuf anchors itself firmly where the Rivière Portneuf meets the expansive St. Lawrence, resting within the distinctive rise of the Coteau de Roche. It lies 11.7 km west of Donnacona, QC (from Donnacona, QC: bearing 280°T), and is situated 12.3 km east of Saint-Marc-des-Carrières. The land here holds a quiet gravity, shaped by the steady pull of the river toward the great estuary, where the light at dusk turns the water into a sheet of hammered silver. Beyond the immediate reach of the shore, the landscape shifts toward the wilder terrain of the Réserve écologique de Pointe-Platon, located just 5 km away, offering a dense, protected stillness that contrasts with the open expanse of the river. Further inland, the terrain climbs and conceals hidden pockets of water like Lac Rosa, situated 13 km distant, and the sudden, thunderous descent of Chutes à Gorry, which lies 14 km from the heart of the settlement. Portneuf carries the weight of a long industrial history, having grown around the power of the water that drives the Rivière Portneuf through its center. The economy has shifted from early milling to more diverse ventures, yet the character of Portneuf remains defined by the persistent flow of the river and the labor of those who live beside it. Life here follows the seasonal turning of the Coteau de Roche, where the air grows sharp and clear as autumn settles over the valley. The local identity is not merely found in its buildings, but in the way the residents acknowledge the proximity of the surrounding forests and the constant, audible presence of the river, which dictates the pace of the day and the quiet endurance of the people.
Portneuf s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le Coteau de Roche incline ses pentes vers les eaux vastes et froides. La Rivière Portneuf serpente à travers ce relief, dessinant des méandres qui ont longtemps dicté le rythme des moulins et la force du travail humain. À quelques kilomètres, la Réserve écologique de Pointe-Platon protège une flore silencieuse, tandis que plus loin, le Lac Rosa et les Chutes à Gorry ponctuent le territoire de leurs présences discrètes, loin du tumulte des grandes routes. L’air, chargé d’une humidité marine, semble conserver la mémoire des gestes anciens, ceux des bâtisseurs qui ont tiré profit de la terre et du courant pour établir Portneuf. Les soirs d’été, lorsque la lumière décline sur le fleuve, le paysage s’immobilise dans une clarté presque liquide, révélant la texture rugueuse des falaises et la persistance des traditions agricoles. Chaque demeure, chaque chemin qui longe le rivage, observe ce mouvement perpétuel des marées qui façonne, sans relâche, l’identité de cette rive. Ici, le quotidien s’accorde à la mesure des éléments, dans une sérénité que seule une terre façonnée par les eaux sait offrir à ceux qui habitent son sol.
