Highway 224 is a provincial highway in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan's 200-series highways primarily service its recreational areas. The highway runs from Highway 26 / Highway 950 to Highway 4 / Highway 904. It is about 46 kilometres (29 mi) long.^[1]

Highway 224 is gravelled for its entire length, lies entirely within Meadow Lake Provincial Park, follows the course of the Waterhen River, and provides access to many recreational areas, lakes, and campgrounds.^[2] The lakes accessed by the highway include Greig Lake, Rusty Lake, First Mustus Lake, Second Mustus Lake, Kimball Lake, Matheson Lake, Vivian Lake,^[3] Peitahigan Lake, and Mistohay Lake.

Hwy 224 begins in the Rural Municipality of Beaver River No. 622 on the northern boundary of the village of Goodsoil at the junction between Hwy 26 and Hwy 954, with the road continuing south as Hwy 26. It heads north through farmland a few kilometres to enter Meadow Lake Provincial Park, crossing the Waterhen River just west of Lac des Îles and curving eastward at an intersection with Hwy 950. Running parallel to the river, the highway travels woodlands for the next several kilometres, crossing Mistohay Creek via a culvert and travelling along the southern coastline of Mistohay Lake. Winding its way southeast past several campgrounds and Peitahigan Lake, Matheson Lake, Vivian Lake (where it crosses into the Rural Municipality of Meadow Lake No. 588), First and Second Mustus Lakes, and Kimball Lake, where it passes by a subdivision as well as a campground with several amenities. Hwy 224 now crosses over Rusty Creek and traverses some switchbacks as it travels along the coastlines of Rusty Lake and Greig Lake, where it has intersections with an access road to the Waters Edge Eco Lodge as well as Park Street, which leads to the resort village of Greig Lake. After passing through remote woodlands for a few kilometres, the highway comes to an end at the intersection between Hwy 4 and Hwy 904, just metres away from from the north bank of the river. The entire length of Hwy 224 is a grave, two-lane highway.^[4][5]
