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-Pétronille.
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-Pétronille is a village municipality in Sainte-Pétronille; L'Île-d'Orléans, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Sainte-Pétronille is located at 46.8500°N, 71.1333°W.
Sainte-Pétronille anchors the eastern reach of the island, resting where the broad expanse of the St. Lawrence meets the rising slopes of the Mont des Roses. It lies 7.0 km north-east of Québec, QC (from Québec, QC: bearing 55°T), and is situated 13.1 km north-east of Lévis. The air here carries a sharp, cooling clarity, heavy with the scent of damp stone and the deep, abiding presence of the La Grande Rivière. Beyond the village, the landscape turns toward the interior, where the Réservoir des Marches Naturelles waits six kilometers distant and the Chutes du Sault à la Puce marks the horizon seventeen kilometers away. As the sun dips toward the water, the light softens into a pale, translucent gold that clings to the orchards and the weathered wooden siding of the older homes. Sainte-Pétronille maintains a quiet dignity, grounded in a history of maritime labor and the persistent care of the land that has sustained generations. The local economy persists through the harvest of the soil and the seasonal influx of those drawn to the quietude of the cliffs. Life within Sainte-Pétronille follows the changing tides of the river, with the daily movements of the residents mirroring the steady, purposeful flow of the currents that define the edge of their world.
Sainte-Pétronille s’étire avec une grâce tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard se perd dans l'immensité mouvante des eaux. Dominant ce promontoire, le Mont des Roses offre un relief qui semble sculpter la lumière du soir, tandis que le souffle du vent transporte l'écho lointain de La Grande Rivière. À quelques lieues, le Réservoir des Marches Naturelles et les Chutes du Sault à la Puce marquent le paysage d'une présence minérale et sauvage, rappelant la puissance brute qui façonne ces terres depuis des siècles. Les maisons, héritières d'une lignée de laboureurs et de marins, se tournent vers le large avec une obstination sereine, leurs jardins profitant d'un microclimat propice à la culture fruitière qui définit encore aujourd'hui l'économie de Sainte-Pétronille. Ici, la vie suit le rythme des marées et la patience des saisons, loin des bruits du monde, gardant intacte la simplicité des gestes anciens. La terre, fertile et généreuse, porte en elle les traces de ceux qui l'ont habitée avant, dans un dialogue silencieux entre le roc et le fleuve qui définit l'âme de cet espace singulier. Il flotte dans l'air une clarté particulière, une douceur qui enveloppe le visiteur et l'invite à habiter pleinement chaque instant passé face à l'horizon.
