Route description

[edit]

PR 265 begins in the Rural Municipality of Minto-Odanah at an intersection with PR 262 just north of Clanwilliam, heading due east through farmland to enter the Rural Municipality of Rosedale and traverse a small river valley, where it passes through Polonia. The highway continues east across several small streams to enter the town of Eden, where it joins a short concurrency with PTH 5 (Parks Route) as it passes along the western side of town. Leaving Eden, PR 265 splits off heads east through rural farmland to enter the Municipality of Glenella-Lansdowne, crossing PR 352 between Birnie and Arden.[1] It has an intersection with PR 462 before entering the Municipality of WestLake-Gladstone. PR 265 travels along the northern side of the town of Plumas along Queens Road and Clear Avenue, where it crosses a railroad, before joining a concurrency with PR 260 for few kilometres as their leaving town. PR 265 now traverses the swampy marshlands surrounding Jackfish Lake, where it crosses the Whitemud River, before entering the hamlet of Langruth, where it comes to and end at a junction with PTH 50 (Kinosota Road). The road continues east as Road 94N to the beaches of Lake Manitoba at Big Point. Besides the section within the town of Plumas, as well as the concurrencies with PTH 5 and PR 260, the entire length of Provincial Road 265 is a gravel, two-lane road.[2][3]
