Provincial Trunk Highway 19 (PTH 19) is a short east-west provincial highway in the west-central region of the Canadian province of Manitoba. It runs from PTH 5 near Norgate to PTH 10 near Wasagaming.[1]
Route description
As of 2014, PTH 19 is the only provincial trunk highway in Manitoba in which the entire length of the route is unpaved. With the exception of a 5 km stretch between PTH 5 and its east gate, the route travels within Riding Mountain National Park. The highway is closed to heavy truck traffic inside the park during the winter months.[2]
PTH 19 provides access to campgrounds and hiking trails on the east side of the park, as well as access to the trailhead to Grey Owl's Cabin.
