Highway 304 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It runs from Hwy 26 just south of Loon Lake to Hwy 4 and Hwy 799 just south of Meadow Lake, passing through the towns of Makwa and Morin Creek. It is about 49 kilometres (30 mi) long.[1]
Hwy 304 begins in the Rural Municipality of Loon Lake No. 561 at an intersection with Hwy 26 just of the town of Loon Lake, on the western shore of Nichols Lake. It heads east through farmland, crossing Horse Head Creek before travelling straight through the centre of the village of Makwa along Main Street. The highway crosses Rabbit Creek before going through a switchback and passing through the hamlet of Morin Creek. After crossing the creek of the same name, Hwy 304 enters the Rural Municipality of Meadow Lake No. 588 and takes a northeast jog through the woodlands of Nesset Lake Recreation Site as it travels just to the south of Nesset Lake. Now turning back eastward, the highway travels through rural farmland for several kilometres, crossing several small streams to come an end at the intersection between Hwy 4 and the western end of Hwy 799 just south the town of Meadow Lake. The entire length of Hwy 304 is a paved, two-lane highway.[2]
