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-Wenceslas.
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-Wenceslas is a municipality in Saint-Wenceslas; Nicolet-Yamaska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Saint-Wenceslas is located at 46.1658°N, 72.3267°W.
Saint-Wenceslas lies nestled within the quiet lowlands of the Nicolet-Yamaska region, where the land holds the soft, lingering memory of ancient glacial retreats. It lies 25.8 km south-east of Trois-Rivières, QC (from Trois-Rivières, QC: bearing 140°T), and is situated 15.2 km west-south-west of Daveluyville. The horizon here stretches wide and unobstructed, defined by the steady, dark flow of the Rivière Bécancour as it carves a patient path toward the St. Lawrence. To the south and east, the character of the terrain shifts subtly, reaching toward the distant Réserve écologique Léon-Provancher, while the hidden waters of Lac Ginette and the bracing spray of Chutes Maddington rest within a short distance of the village limits. As dusk settles, the air thickens with a cool, damp scent, and the low sunlight catches the flat fields, turning the stubble of the harvest into a brilliant, fleeting copper. Saint-Wenceslas maintains a steady pace, grounded in a long-standing agricultural heritage that continues to shape the daily lives of its residents. The local economy draws its strength from the fertile soil and the industrious nature of those who work the land, ensuring that the character of Saint-Wenceslas remains rooted in its rural traditions. Throughout the changing seasons, the silence of the countryside is broken only by the rhythmic work of farm machinery or the shifting wind moving across the open plains. This is a landscape where the weight of the seasons is felt in the marrow, and the quiet endurance of the people reflects the permanence of the earth beneath their feet.
Saint-Wenceslas déploie ses terres planes et fertiles sur le Plateau Laval, offrant une étendue où la lumière du crépuscule s’étire avec une lenteur presque religieuse sur les champs cultivés. Le souffle du vent, qui parcourt les plaines agricoles, semble porter en lui le souvenir des défrichements anciens, tandis que les eaux de la Rivière Bécancour marquent le territoire d’une sinuosité apaisante. Saint-Wenceslas cultive une identité profondément liée à cette terre nourricière, où le travail des hommes se mesure à la patience des récoltes et à la ténacité des familles établies. À quelques lieues, la nature impose sa présence discrète avec le Lac Ginette, les Chutes Maddington ou encore la Réserve écologique Léon-Provancher, autant de repères qui ponctuent les environs sans jamais rompre le calme de cette contrée. Ici, la vie s'écoule au rythme des gestes répétés, ceux qui assurent la pérennité du foyer et le respect des traditions rurales. Sous le ciel immense, le paysage se décline en teintes douces, une terre humble qui ne cherche pas à impressionner, mais qui offre à ceux qui l’habitent une stabilité rare, portée par une mémoire collective solidement enracinée dans le sol limoneux de cette région de Nicolet-Yamaska.
