State Highway 49 (SH 49) is a New Zealand state highway, linking SH 4 and SH 1, via the tourist town of Ohakune. It forms the southern part of the ring road surrounding Tongariro National Park and provides access to the southern side of Mount Ruapehu and the Turoa skifield. It roughly follows the North Island Main Trunk railway. SH 49, along with SH 4, SH 47, and SH 46, is used as an alternative route to SH 1 and the Desert Road, and is well used when the Desert Road is closed due to snow. SH 49 lies entirely within the Ruapehu District.
