Secondary Highway 553, commonly referred to as Highway 553, is a provincially maintained highway in the Canadian province of Ontario. The highway is short, and spans only 31.7 km (19.7 mi). Its only purpose is to connect the Highway 17, the Trans Canada Highway, in the community of Massey (township of Sables-Spanish Rivers) to logging areas and provincial parks north of the community.

At the northern terminus of Highway 553 at Bull Lake, the roadway continues as tertiary Highway 810. The route of Highway 810 was part of Highway 553 prior to 1976, but was downgraded to tertiary highway status in that year because of its more limited traffic usage.
