Provincial Trunk Highway 10 (PTH 10) is a major north-south highway that runs in the western region of the province of Manitoba, Canada.
PTH 10 begins at the International Peace Garden along the Canada-United States border near Boissevain. The highway runs north through Brandon, Dauphin, Swan River, and The Pas to the Saskatchewan boundary at Flin Flon. The speed limit is 100 km/h.
Between Dauphin and The Pas, Highway 10 is designated as the Northern Woods and Water Route. The highway also serves as the main route through Riding Mountain National Park.
At 847 km (526 mi) in length, PTH 10 is currently the longest highway in the province.
An earlier PTH 10 was designated in 1926 from Winnipeg to Whitemouth. In 1930, it extended east to Ontario. This was eliminated in 1932-1933, as it became part of PTH 1. PTH 10, in its current state, first appeared on the 1938-39 Manitoba Highway Map. Prior to this, the road appeared in several broken sections with different numbering. Between PTH 5 and Swan River, the highway was known as Highway 6. The highway was designated as Highway 26 between Minnedosa and Brandon, and as Highway 25 between Brandon and Highway 2, and Highway 20 from Highway 2 to Boissevain. Highway 20 became part of Highway 25 in 1929.
