The municipality also includes two hamlets: Rivière-Creuse in the Notre-Dame-du-Lac sector and Route-du-Sault in the Cabano sector. The city is located on Lake Témiscouata which stretches over 45 km long. In fact, it is the second largest lake on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River in Quebec.
