The municipality of Larouche is a link between Saguenay and Lac-Saint-Jean. The Saguenay River is its northern border and the territory extends south from Route des Fondateurs to Lake Kénogami. To the west, the border is shared with Saint-Bruno and to the east shared with Jonquière. Larouche is crossed by route 170 which crosses the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region.
 

The municipality has two residential developments located in the center of the village and in the resort area. The heart of the municipality is rooted between Route 170 and the railway, along Gauthier Street, where we find the main services of the municipality and the parish core.

The municipality of Larouche was founded in 1895 by William Larouche and his wife Marie-Louise Gilbert.
