Highway 169 is a defunct provincial highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. Located in Muskoka District and Simcoe County, the highway extended from Highway 69 at Foot's Bay to Highway 12 at Brechin. The highway was multiplexed with Highway 11 between Gravenhurst and Washago.
Originally part of the Highway 69 route, the highway assumed the new 169 designation in 1976 when Highway 69 was realigned along the former Highway 103 route from Foot's Bay to Waubaushene.
The provincial highway status was removed in the highway downloads of 1998. The route is now designated as Muskoka Road 169 from Foot's Bay to Gravenhurst, and Simcoe County Road 169 from Washago to Brechin. Through Muskoka District, the road also has the street name Frank Miller Memorial Route.
