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 Villa-des-Érables.
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.

Villa-des-Érables is a residential area in Saint-Félicien; Le Domaine-du-Roy, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Villa-des-Érables is located at 48.4083°N, 71.9611°W.
Villa-des-Érables rests with quiet permanence upon the shore of Lac Saint-Jean, sheltered by the rugged presence of the Monts Jumeaux. It lies 22.8 km east-south-east of Roberval, QC (from Roberval, QC: bearing 122°T), and is situated 7.9 km east-south-east of Chambord. The Rivière MacDonald carves a deliberate path through the terrain, its waters carrying the crisp clarity of the highlands down toward the expansive basin of the lake. In the golden hour, the light catches the surface of the water, turning the expanse into a sheet of hammered copper that holds the reflection of the surrounding ridges. The air here carries a sharp, clean vitality, seasoned by the scent of balsam and the persistent, low-frequency hum of the river current. While Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon sits some distance away, the spirit of the wilderness feels immediate and close, defining the horizon with a dark, verdant line that never quite settles into stillness. Life in Villa-des-Érables follows the seasonal shifts that dictate the pace of work and rest in Le Domaine-du-Roy, where the history of the land is measured in the persistence of those who built their lives against the forest edge. Local industry has long leaned into the bounty of the surroundings, drawing strength from the timber and the seasonal harvest that sustains the region. The cultural character of the people reflects a sturdy independence, born from generations of navigating the transition between the dense cover of the Monts Jumeaux and the open, unpredictable moods of Lac Saint-Jean. Evenings often center on the simple rituals of woodsmoke and conversation, where the sound of the Rivière MacDonald provides a constant, murmuring backdrop to the daily business of living.
Villa-des-Érables déploie ses assises sur les rives vastes du Lac Saint-Jean, là où la lumière décline avec une lenteur mélancolique sur les eaux dormantes. Les Monts Jumeaux dominent l’horizon de leur présence massive, imposant une stature minérale qui semble veiller sur les activités humaines, tandis que le cours sinueux de la Rivière MacDonald sculpte le relief avec une constance paisible. Dans cette zone du Domaine-du-Roy, le travail de la terre et la rudesse des hivers ont façonné une identité robuste, portée par des lignées qui ont su apprivoiser la rigueur du climat boréal. Villa-des-Érables conserve une allure de solitude sereine, loin de l’agitation, trouvant dans son isolement relatif une dignité tranquille propre aux terres sauvages. À mesure que le jour s'éteint, le silence des Monts Jumeaux gagne les berges, enveloppant les habitations d'une atmosphère feutrée qui rappelle les récits anciens des défricheurs. Le Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon, bien qu'éloigné de quelques lieues, influence par son immensité préservée le caractère sauvage de tout le secteur, offrant un rappel constant de la puissance de la nature environnante. Les habitants, habitués à la cadence lente des éléments, observent le passage des saisons sur la Rivière MacDonald, perpétuant des gestes simples qui lient le présent aux racines profondes de ce territoire singulier.
