King's Highway 41, commonly referred to as Highway 41, is a provincially maintained highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. It once travelled from Highway 401 in Napanee north to Highway 17 on the outskirts of Pembroke. However, the section south of Highway 7 in Kaladar was transferred to Lennox and Addington County and is now County Road 41.
Highway 41 is a long highway which travels in a predominantly north–south direction across eastern Ontario, from Highway 7 in Kaladar and Highway 148 in Pembroke. The majority of this distance crosses through a rugged forested region known as Mazinaw Country. However, the route enters the Ottawa Valley at a point between Dacre and Eganville; north of there the land use surrounding the highway becomes mostly agricultural.
Highway 41 begins in the centre of Lennox and Addington County at Highway 7, in the town of Kaladar. The highway once continued south to Napanee, but this is now County Road 41. The highway travels north through the Canadian Shield roughly following the Addington Colonization Road, straddling the boundary between Lennox and Addington County and Frontenac County. It serves the communities of Northbrook and Cloyne before entering Bon Echo Provincial Park. Within the park is the large Mazinaw Rock escarpment, which is visible from the highway.
