Provincial Road 394 (PR 394) is a 96.3-kilometre (59.8 mi) long gravel provincial highway in northwestern Manitoba. The route, the furthest northwest in the province, begins at an intersection with PR 391 and PR 396 in the town of Lynn Lake. The primary feature of PR 394 is the numerous lakes that the route passes, such as Zed and Vandekerckhove. The route terminates at the Saskatchewan provincial line, where it becomes Highway 994, a connector to the community of Kinoosao.
PR 394 was first constructed in 1961 as a gravel road from Lynn Lake and the Canadian National Railway to the east of Zed Lake. In 1962, it was extended to the provincial line with the connector at Co-Op Point to modern-day Kinoosao. The route was designated in 1966, along with the majority of the provincial highway system in Lynn Lake.
PR 394 begins at an intersection with PR 391 and PR 396 (both parts of Sherritt Avenue) in the town of Lynn Lake. This intersection also serves as the terminus of PR 391 and PR 396. PR 394 runs northwest along Silver Street, passing through downtown Lynn Lake and north of the Marcel Colomb First Nation. After the intersection with Cobalt Street, the route leaves downtown Lynn Lake, passing east of the Lynn Lake Airport. PR 394 parallels the runway for the airport, passing the southwestern shore of Burge Lake, making a bend to the northwest and into an intersection with the southern terminus of PR 398, which connected to Burge Lake Provincial Park.
