This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Trois-Lacs, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

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 Trois-Lacs.
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.

Trois-Lacs is a resort in Frontenac; Le Granit, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Trois-Lacs is located at 45.4675°N, 70.8581°W.
Trois-Lacs rests within a quiet fold of the land, defined by the presence of the Montagne de la Croix and the steady flow of the Rivière Arnold. It lies 12.0 km south of Lac-Mégantic, QC (from Lac-Mégantic, QC: bearing 171°T), and is situated 9.2 km north of Woburn. The water of the Rivière Arnold carries a cold, clear clarity, reflecting the heavy green shadows cast by the slopes of the Montagne de la Croix as the sun slips toward the horizon. Near the water, the air feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and cooling stone, a sensory stillness that persists even as the light turns a bruised, metallic gold. Beyond the immediate banks, the landscape opens toward the Lac des Joncs, where the reeds lean in unison against the prevailing wind. While the grandeur of the Parc national du Mont-Mégantic looms in the distance, the immediate character of Trois-Lacs remains defined by its intimate proximity to these smaller, persistent waters and the rugged, forested terrain that anchors the region. Life in Trois-Lacs follows the stubborn requirements of the terrain, where the economy has long been shaped by the necessity of working the woods and the soil. The history of the locale is marked by the quiet persistence of those who cleared the brush to build lives along the river, leaving behind a legacy of self-reliance that persists in the way the local architecture hugs the contours of the slopes. Days here are governed by the shifting light across the ridges, and the sound of the Rivière Arnold provides a constant, low-frequency hum that underpins the work of the day. Traditions here are not shouted but held in the shared maintenance of the land, a practice passed down through families who know exactly how the frost behaves on the shadowed side of the hills.
Trois-Lacs déploie ses horizons sur un sol où le relief s’élève doucement vers la Montagne de la Croix, imposant une présence minérale et silencieuse sur le quotidien des habitants. La Rivière Arnold serpente à travers les terres basses, dessinant un ruban d’eau vive qui rythme la vie agricole et sculpte la topographie des champs. À quelques pas seulement, le Lac des Joncs ajoute une note de sérénité sauvage, ses rives offrant une halte aux brumes matinales qui s’attardent sur le paysage. Bien que le Parc national du Mont-Mégantic impose sa stature imposante à l’horizon lointain, Trois-Lacs conserve une identité propre, forgée par la rudesse des hivers et la douceur des étés qui transforment les couleurs des boisés. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une clarté particulière, teintant les façades de bois et les chemins de terre d’une patine dorée qui rappelle les racines anciennes de ceux qui ont défriché ces terres. Trois-Lacs demeure ainsi un espace de labeur et de patience, où le vent apporte encore, par moments, les parfums de la terre retournée et la fraîcheur humide de la Rivière Arnold, liant les hommes à une nature exigeante mais généreuse.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude.
