It lies 8.6 km east-north-east of Alma, QC (from Alma, QC: bearing 60°T), and is situated 15.1 km north-north-east of Saint-Bruno. The earth here holds the light of late afternoon with a peculiar, heavy warmth, casting long shadows across the fields that stretch toward Lac Cimon, located just 3 km away. While the Saguenay River flows about 5 km from the center, the surrounding terrain maintains a sturdy, agricultural composure that resists the rush of the modern world. Even the air feels distilled, carrying the faint, sharp scent of balsam and turned soil that defines the changing seasons. Residents move through their days with a steady focus, their lives shaped by the proximity of the land and the distant, cooling presence of Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon, which sits 33 km to the northeast.
