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 Rivière-des-Roches.
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.

Rivière-des-Roches emerges where the land meets the St. Lawrence, defined by the persistent flow of the Rivière des Roches as it carves its path toward the river’s expansive reach. It lies 15.9 km north-north-east of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC (from Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC: bearing 33°T), and is situated 11.6 km north-north-east of Beaupré. The air here carries a sharp, salt-tinged clarity, cooling as it moves inland toward the rising terrain near Le Petit Cap. Within this rugged topography, the landscape holds quiet corners like Lac de la Colline, situated just a kilometer away, where the water mirrors the shifting grey of the sky. Farther along the slopes, Les Sept Chutes adds a rhythmic intensity to the terrain, its presence felt two kilometers from the heart of the settlement. At dusk, the light clings to the stones along the banks of the Rivière des Roches, turning the water into a dark, polished ribbon that seems to hold the day’s final heat. Life in Rivière-des-Roches reflects the endurance of those who have long navigated the steep grades and rocky soil of La Côte-de-Beaupré. The local economy and the daily habits of its people remain tied to the terrain, marked by a history of resourcefulness and a deep familiarity with the changing seasons. Residents move with a deliberate pace, attuned to the demands of a landscape that requires constant attention, from the maintenance of hillside homesteads to the seasonal harvesting of the surrounding woods. Whether tending to plots of land or traveling toward the nearby heights, the people of Rivière-des-Roches maintain a quiet connection to their surroundings, finding beauty in the stark, unyielding resilience of the bedrock that defines their home.
Rivière-des-Roches s’étire avec une persévérance silencieuse sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le Petit Cap marque une frontière naturelle entre la terre ferme et l'immensité du fleuve. Ici, le paysage est une affaire de patience, définie par le murmure constant de la Rivière des Roches qui dévale son lit rocheux vers les eaux plus vastes. À peine un kilomètre sépare les habitations du Lac de la Colline, dont les eaux calmes semblent absorber les derniers éclats d'un soleil déclinant, tandis que le fracas lointain des Sept Chutes, situées à deux kilomètres de distance, ponctue l'air d'une vibration minérale et humide. L'existence à Rivière-des-Roches suit le rythme des marées et des récoltes, héritage d'une tradition agricole qui a su apprivoiser ces terres escarpées de la Côte-de-Beaupré. La lumière, lorsqu'elle glisse sur les pentes, révèle une texture de sol robuste, façonnée par des générations ayant appris à lire le relief accidenté avec une précision d'artisan. Chaque maison, chaque grange, porte en soi cette relation directe avec un environnement physique qui n'offre rien sans effort, mais qui récompense ceux qui acceptent de vivre à son diapason, entre la force des courants fluviaux et la sérénité des hauteurs boisées.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
