Ferland settles along the banks of the Rivière Ha! Ha!, where the water holds the deep, slate-grey clarity of the northern highlands. It lies 31.8 km south-south-east of Saguenay, QC (from Saguenay, QC: bearing 150°T), and is situated 13.7 km west of L'Écluse-à-Hilaire. The land here rises in steep, wooded ridges that capture the light in long, amber streaks as the sun dips toward the horizon, casting a stillness over the valley that feels both heavy and light. Within reach of the village, Lac de la Tour mirrors the sky in a quiet, undisturbed expanse, while the rugged terrain further out hides the dramatic drop of Les Trois Chutes. Beyond the immediate valley, the distant presence of Parc national des Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie marks the wilder reaches of the horizon, defining the scale of a world built on stone and current. The life of Ferland persists through a steady relationship with the timber and the soil, shaped by the persistence of those who first cleared the dense bush to carve out a living. Industry here remains tied to the land’s raw materials, as the sound of the Rivière Ha! Ha! provides a constant, low-frequency hum beneath the daily work of the residents. People move with the deliberate focus of those who know the winters are long and the spring thaw is a hard-won victory. In the quiet intersections of the streets, the character of Ferland reveals itself in the sturdy architecture and the way the evening air carries the scent of woodsmoke, marking the transition from the labor of the day to the sudden, cold clarity of the mountain night.

Ferland s'étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives de la Rivière Ha! Ha!, là où le terrain accidenté du Fjord-du-Saguenay impose une cadence lente aux journées qui s'étirent. Dans cette lumière dorée et fragile du crépuscule, le souffle du nord descend des reliefs pour caresser les terres agricoles, rappelant aux habitants la rudesse nécessaire à la persévérance. Le Lac de la Tour, blotti à quelques kilomètres, semble garder le silence sur les origines de ceux qui ont défriché ce sol rocailleux, tandis que la puissance des Trois Chutes résonne plus loin comme un rappel constant de la force indomptable des eaux. La proximité du Parc national des Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie souligne cette appartenance à une nature immense, presque démesurée pour l'homme. À Ferland, chaque foyer porte en lui le souvenir des efforts constants pour apprivoiser une géographie exigeante, façonnant une identité qui se nourrit autant du travail de la terre que de la contemplation de ces horizons sauvages. La vie s'y organise par les gestes répétés, ceux qui assurent la subsistance dans un climat rigoureux où l'air, pur et tranchant, aiguise les sens et lie les générations à ces espaces vastes, façonnés par la roche et le courant ininterrompu des eaux.
