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 Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge.
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.

Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge stretches along the northern banks of the St. Lawrence, where the rising ground of the Coteau Sainte-Geneviève anchors the terrain against the shifting currents of the water. It lies 3.6 km east-north-east of Vieux-Cap-Rouge, QC (from Vieux-Cap-Rouge, QC: bearing 75°T), and is situated 9.3 km south-west of Québec. The Rivière du Cap Rouge cuts through the landscape, carving a quiet path that draws the eye toward the horizon as the afternoon light catches the mist rising from the riverbed. While Lac Saint-Augustin remains a reflective presence only 7 km away, the local horizon is punctuated by the sheer movement of the Chutes de la Chaudière, situated 6 km across the way, reminding those who dwell here of the persistent energy of the land. The history of Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge is marked by a long succession of inhabitants who recognized the strategic value of these bluffs overlooking the river. Today, the economy thrives through a blend of academic pursuit, centered around prominent institutions of higher learning, and a robust commercial sector that sustains the daily lives of its residents. The air here carries a crisp, northern clarity, especially in the transition seasons when the activity of the streets aligns with the changing tides of the St. Lawrence. Whether one is walking near the historic heights or engaging with the modern pulse of local industry, the presence of the water and the elevated ridges defines the character of the region, grounding every innovation in the enduring physical reality of the valley.
Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge déploie ses terrasses habitées le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, où la lumière déclinante transforme les eaux en une surface de métal poli. Ce paysage, marqué par l’élévation naturelle du Coteau Sainte-Geneviève, porte les vestiges d’une longue occupation humaine qui a su apprivoiser la pente abrupte surplombant le fleuve. Les vents chargés d’embruns remontent parfois jusqu’aux quartiers paisibles, tandis que la Rivière du Cap Rouge trace son sillon tranquille vers l’estuaire, offrant aux résidents une respiration végétale au milieu du béton. À quelques encablures, le Lac Saint-Augustin dort sous une brume légère, tandis que le grondement sourd des Chutes de la Chaudière se laisse deviner par-delà les courants. Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge conjugue ainsi une vitalité académique et commerciale avec la persistance de son relief, héritage géologique qui impose sa cadence aux activités quotidiennes. Les rues s’étirent entre les parcelles boisées et les zones de vie active, créant une atmosphère où le silence des bois rencontre le mouvement incessant des marées. Ici, le ciel semble plus vaste, dilaté par la proximité des grandes étendues d’eau qui dictent depuis toujours la marche du monde et le calme des soirées d'automne.
