    Highway 349 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It runs from Highway 6 (CanAm Highway) / Highway 777 in Naicam to Highway 38. It is about 69 kilometres (43 mi) long.[1]

    Highway 349 passes through the communities of Dahlton, Archerwill, and Nobleville. It intersects Highway 679 and is concurrent with Highway 35 for 14 kilometres (8.7 mi).

    Hwy 349 begins in the Rural Municipality of Pleasantdale No. 398 at the intersection between the CanAm Highway (Hwy 6) and Hwy 777 in the town of Naicam, heading eastward through neighbourhoods on the north side of town along 3rd Street N. After crossing a former railway line, it leaves Naicam as a paved two-lane highway and heads through rural areas for several kilometres, traversing a switchback and travelling past several small lakes and Lake Charron Regional Park to an intersection with Hwy 640 (Range Road 2160) just north of St. Front, where it enters the Rural Municipality of Barrier Valley No. 397. The highway now passes through the hamlet of Dahlton before becoming concurrent (overlapped) with southbound Hwy 35 for approximately 14 kilometres (8.7 mi), where the pair travel on the south side of the Ponass Lakes. Entering the town of Archerwill, the highway makes an abrupt sharp left to travel through the centre of downtown before Hwy 349 splits off and heads east across Canadian Pacific Railway's Tisdale Subdivision to have an intersection with Hwy 652 (Algrove Road). After having an intersection with an access road to Barrier Lake (Range Road 2131, also provides access to Barrier Lake View Resort and Barrier Ford), Hwy 349 enters the Rural Municipality of Kelvington No. 366, crossing the Red Deer River immediately north of Nut Lake before the pavement transitions to gravel. Continuing east through a mix of farmland and wooded areas, it has an intersection with Range Road 2123 (provides access to the Yellow Quill First Nation) and passes through the hamlet of Nobleville, where it junctions with Hwy 679. A few kilometres later, Hwy 349 comes to an end the junction with Hwy 38 just south of Greenwater Lake Provincial Park.[2]
