Route Description
Highway 125 is 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) long and travels from Highway 105 in Red Lake to the ferry docks in the Cochenour/McKenzie Island area. Beyond Cochenour and Balmertown, unmaintained forestry roads travel northwards to Pikangikum, and link to winter/ice roads that service communities even further north. The only provincially-maintained highway that travels further north is secondary Highway 599 to Pickle Lake.
Despite connecting two nearby communities, the majority of the route is rural in nature; only the final kilometre is within a built-up area.

“It [Egypt] has more wonders in it than any other country in the world and provides more works that defy description than any other place.”
