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 Saint-Achillée.
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.

Saint-Achillée is a hamlet in Château-Richer; La Côte-de-Beaupré, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Achillée is located at 47.0511°N, 71.0283°W.
Saint-Achillée rests upon the rising ground above the St. Lawrence, where the land tilts toward the salt-scented horizon near the steep, formidable presence of Les Caps. It lies 7.2 km west-north-west of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC (from Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC: bearing 303°T), and is situated 9.8 km west of Beaupré. The Rivière du Sault à la Puce carves a persistent path through the terrain, its cold currents drawing vitality from the heights before tumbling toward the riverbanks. As the light wanes, the air here grows thin and sharp, carrying a metallic clarity that clarifies the silhouette of the trees against a bruised, violet sky. While Lac du Bord sits tucked away in the quiet interior roughly 5 km from the main thoroughfare, the distant, rhythmic roar of Chutes du Sault à la Puce, located 8 km away, anchors the auditory landscape of the region. The history of Saint-Achillée reflects the patient labor of those who cleared the dense woodland to claim a foothold within the rugged expanse of La Côte-de-Beaupré. Life here moves in alignment with the seasonal shifts of the earth, where the local economy has long leaned into the yields of the soil and the endurance of the timber. Though the vast, protected reaches of Parc national de la Jacques-Cartier lie 40 km away, the local character remains defined by a singular, focused proximity to the river and the cliffs. Residents move with a quiet competence, their daily habits shaped by the necessity of navigating the slope and the persistent, bracing dampness that rises from the St. Lawrence to cling to the morning windows.
Saint-Achillée s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où les Caps imposent leur stature sombre et protectrice au-dessus du mouvement perpétuel des eaux. Le terrain, marqué par la proximité de la Rivière du Sault à la Puce, dicte une cadence de vie liée aux crues et au labeur des terres agricoles qui s'accrochent aux pentes de la Côte-de-Beaupré. À mesure que le jour décline, une lumière particulière baigne les champs, faisant ressortir la rudesse du relief et l'immensité de l'horizon maritime. Les habitants de Saint-Achillée connaissent bien le silence qui monte du Lac du Bord, situé à quelques lieues, ou le grondement sourd des Chutes du Sault à la Puce, dont l'écume blanche rappelle la force vive des courants de cette région. Bien que le Parc national de la Jacques-Cartier s'étende plus loin dans les terres, le quotidien ici demeure tourné vers l'estuaire, vers ce souffle salin qui sculpte les habitudes et les gestes des hommes depuis des générations. Cette terre, façonnée par l'effort et la proximité du fleuve, garde une mémoire vive dans ses chemins et ses granges, offrant à ceux qui l'habitent une existence simple, rythmée par les caprices de la marée et la permanence des Caps.

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.
