Minnesota State Highway 73 (MN 73) is a highway in northeast Minnesota, which runs from its interchange with Interstate Highway 35 in Moose Lake and continues north to its northern terminus at its intersection with U.S. Highway 53 in Field Township near Cook and Orr.

Highway 73 is 120 miles (190 km) in length.

Highway 73 serves as a north–south route in northeast Minnesota between Moose Lake, Kettle River, Cromwell, Floodwood, Hibbing, and Chisholm.

The roadway passes through the Sturgeon River State Forest and the Superior National Forest, both north of Chisholm, in Saint Louis County.

The route is legally defined as Legislative Route 163 in the Minnesota Statutes. It is not marked with this number.

Highway 73 was authorized in 1933, and was originally numbered "Minnesota 63" until that U.S. route number (U.S. 63) was added elsewhere in Minnesota.
