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-Augustin-de-Desmaures.
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-Augustin-de-Desmaures rests upon the northern banks of the St. Lawrence, where the land yields to the expansive movement of the river. It lies 8.1 km west of Vieux-Cap-Rouge, QC (from Vieux-Cap-Rouge, QC: bearing 261°T), and is situated 15.1 km north-north-east of Saint-Apollinaire. The terrain rises toward the Butte du Petit-Capsa, a silent sentinel watching over the lowlands, while the Rivière Charland cuts a narrow path through the earth, carrying the melt of the season toward the great channel. Near the horizon, the stillness of Lac Saint-Augustin reflects the shifting colors of the sky, and the distant roar of the Chutes de la Chaudière reminds those nearby of the persistent, gravity-fed power carving through the bedrock of the region. As the sun dips low, the light stretches thin and amber across the fields, casting long, sharp shadows that emphasize the quiet patience of the landscape. The economy of Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures has long benefited from its strategic position along the water, bridging the transition between agricultural roots and the steady pulse of modern industry. Early settlers looked to the fertile soil and the river’s bounty to sustain their families, creating a foundation that supports the current blend of residential growth and commercial enterprise. Daily life here maintains a deliberate focus, marked by the commute of workers and the seasonal maintenance of homes that look toward the water. History lingers in the architecture and the orientation of the roads, which acknowledge the importance of the river as an ancient thoroughfare. This locality holds a particular character, one defined by the proximity of the St. Lawrence and the enduring, practical connection between the people and the land they occupy.
Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures s'étire avec une patience infinie le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose sa présence souveraine et ses marées changeantes. Sur ce territoire modelé par les eaux, la proximité de la Butte du Petit-Capsa offre un relief discret, tandis que la Rivière Charland serpente avec une régularité apaisante, irriguant les terres qui ont longtemps nourri les familles de colons. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une qualité particulière, une clarté presque liquide qui glisse sur les façades des demeures et se perd dans les replis du paysage. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Saint-Augustin offre un miroir calme à la voûte céleste, alors que le grondement lointain des Chutes de la Chaudière rappelle la force brute des éléments qui entourent Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures. L'activité industrielle s'y déploie avec une retenue élégante, respectant le rythme des jours et la mémoire des laboureurs qui ont autrefois défriché ces sols fertiles. Il subsiste dans l'air une fraîcheur persistante, un souvenir des vents marins qui remontent le courant pour caresser les frondaisons et les toits. Les habitants y cultivent une existence sobre, tournée vers la contemplation de cet horizon où le ciel rencontre les eaux, dans une harmonie simple qui définit chaque instant de la vie quotidienne.
