Provincial Road 373 (also known as Highway 373 or PR 373) is a highly recognized all-weather provincial road in Division 22 of Manitoba. The road was made famous by a group of singers from Norway House, who named their band Highway 373. PR 373 begins at an intersection with Highway 6 in Setting Lake, heads eastward through rural regions, and terminating at an intersection with local roads in Norway House. There is one major intersection along the way, Road 374, which heads north to Cross Lake. PR 373's entire length is declared a class A1 provincial road.
PR 373 begins at an intersection with PTH 6 near Setting Lake. The route immediately crosses the Canadian National Railway as a two-lane dirt road, passing south of Resting Lake. PR 373 runs east and northeast for several miles, passing a dirt road connection to Diamond Lake. The route makes a gradual bend to the southeast, passing Mustoe Lake and another dirt connection to Duck Lake. PR 373 bends southwest along a straight right-of-way, making a bend from a far distance around Tippett Lake before reaching the community of Jenpeg.
PR 373 runs through Jenpeg on a northeast right-of-way, crossing the northern end of Jenpeg Airport and south of the local dam. Making a bend to the southeast, PR 373 crosses the Nelson River and winds out of Jenpeg along the Nelson River. At the shores of Kiskittogisu Lake, the route reaches a junction with PR 374, which is a spur to Cross Lake and the Cross Lake First Nation. Also present at this junction is a spur to the lake. The route runs southeast for 35 kilometres (22 mi) before reaching the Nelson River once again.
