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 Rocher-Percé.
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.

Rocher-Percé is a locality in Chambord; Le Domaine-du-Roy, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Rocher-Percé is located at 48.4311°N, 72.0347°W.
Rocher-Percé rests as a quiet presence along the northern edge of the vast Lac Saint-Jean, where the land yields to the persistent influence of the water. It lies 16.8 km south-east of Roberval, QC (from Roberval, QC: bearing 125°T), and is situated 2.1 km east of Chambord. The Rivière Métabetchouane carves its path toward the lake, bringing with it the cool, sharp scent of damp earth and timber that defines the local air. Beyond the immediate banks, the silhouette of the Monts Jumeaux rises in the distance, anchoring the horizon under a sky that shifts from bruised violet to pale gold as the sun retreats. This terrain, marked by the resilience of the forest and the pull of the currents, holds a stillness that lingers long after the day’s work has ceased. Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon lies about 30 km away, acting as a distant guardian of the wilder reaches of this basin. Life in Rocher-Percé follows the seasonal cycle of the region, anchored in the traditions of those who have long harvested the timber and farmed the stubborn, productive soil of Chambord. The local economy persists through a grounded connection to the forest and the expansive, inland sea of Lac Saint-Jean, which dictates the pace of trade and travel. Even as the seasons turn, the residents maintain a sense of continuity that reflects the rugged character of Le Domaine-du-Roy. History here is found not in grand monuments, but in the enduring way the community manages the forest edge and the riverbanks, ensuring that the legacy of those who first settled these shores remains visible in the steady, methodical care of the land.
Rocher-Percé s'étire avec une humilité sereine sur les rives du Lac Saint-Jean, là où la lumière déclinante du soir semble suspendre le mouvement des eaux. À proximité, le relief s'affirme par la silhouette imposante des Monts Jumeaux, dont la présence constante donne à l'horizon une solennité presque minérale. Les eaux vives de la Rivière Métabetchouane serpentent vers ces terres de Chambord, façonnant un cadre où la terre noire, riche de labeurs agricoles, rencontre la vigueur des courants nordiques. Le Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon, situé à une trentaine de kilomètres, étend son influence sauvage sur le climat alentour, tempérant les souffles qui balaient les plaines cultivées. Rocher-Percé habite ce territoire avec la persévérance des gens qui connaissent le poids des hivers et la brièveté des étés, cultivant une identité liée aux cycles de la terre et à la générosité des rives. L'air y possède une limpidité rare, comme lavé par le passage des vents qui descendent des plateaux, offrant aux habitants une quiétude qui se lit dans le calme des habitations dispersées. Cette géographie, marquée par la rencontre entre le lac et les terres nourricières, définit le rythme quotidien de Rocher-Percé, où chaque geste s'accorde aux nuances changeantes du ciel boréal et à la force tranquille du paysage environnant.
