The landscape around Saint-Donat is forested and rolling, which has shaped both the settlement pattern and local economy. This small inland community lies in the Appalachian uplands of Bas-Saint-Laurent, well away from the St. Lawrence estuary; the Neigette River runs through its municipal territory. Woodland, farms and dispersed homes define the local setting rather than a dense town centre. Saint-Donat belongs to the La Mitis regional county municipality, and its French-speaking parish heritage reflects the settlement history of rural eastern Quebec. It is a quiet place for understanding the interior side of a region more often associated with the St. Lawrence coast.
