Highway 652 is a long and extremely desolate secondary highway in far Northeastern Ontario. It is one of the most isolated highways in North America, stretching over 150 km (95 miles) from Cochrane into boreal forest to an abandoned mine at Detour Lake.

Most of the highway is now paved, but some gravel sections remain near the northern terminus. There are no settlements of any kind along the route except for the southern terminus of Cochrane. No services are available along the route.
