Highway 9, also called the Saskota Flyway, is a north–south, undivided provincial highway in Saskatchewan, Canada. It runs from North Dakota Highway 8 at the US border near Port of Northgate until it transitions into Provincial Road 283 at the Manitoba provincial boundary. Highway 9 is about 606 kilometres (377 mi) long and passes through the city of Yorkton and the towns of Alameda, Carlyle, Whitewood, Canora, Sturgis, Preeceville, and Hudson Bay. Major highways it intersects include Highway 1 (Trans-Canada highway), Highway 16 (Yellowhead Highway), and Highway 5. While most of it is a paved, two-lane highway, it is a gravel surfaced road from a few kilometres north of the town of Hudson Bay to its northern terminus at the Manitoba border. For short stretches through some of the larger communities, the highway is four lanes. The final 37 kilometres (23 mi) of Highway 9 runs concurrently with Highway 55 as part of the Northern Woods and Water Route.

Highway 9 passes by many notable lakes, traverses plateaus, and crosses major rivers such as the Souris, Qu'Appelle, and the Assiniboine. Along its route, there is also access to several parks and recreational areas.
