Ernfold (2016 population: 15) is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the Rural Municipality of Morse No. 165 and Census Division No. 7. Initially situated alongside the original two-lane highway, the village was enclosed by the opposing lanes of the divided Trans-Canada Highway in 1973. In order to avoid complete destruction of the village the eastbound lane of the Trans-Canada Highway was rerouted approximately 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) south of the village, leaving the village sandwiched between the Trans-Canada.
The village's population peaked at around 300 citizens.
