Provincial highways in Alberta

Alberta Provincial Highway No. 61, commonly referred to as Highway 61, is an east–west highway in southern Alberta, Canada. In the west, Highway 61 starts at Highway 4 north of the Village of Stirling and ends at Highway 889 east of the Hamlet of Manyberries. It is part of the Red Coat Trail, a historical route north of the Canada–US border. The Red Coat Trail continues to Saskatchewan via Highway 889 and Highway 501.

In 1959, Alberta announced $100,000 of improvements to the highway, and incorporation of it to the provincial highway system the following year. Paving was completed by 1961.
