Highway 5, known more commonly as the
Fort Smith Highway, is a highway in
Canada's
Northwest Territories, which travels through
Wood Buffalo National Park and connects
Fort Smith to
Hay River. Area roads past Fort Smith connect into Alberta with
Smith Landing,
Fort Fitzgerald and Peace Point, and form a circle route through Wood Buffalo National Park. Residents of
Fort Chipewyan have petitioned the Alberta government for a 50 km road to connect with the area roads out of Fort Smith.
