Painted Stone Portage ist ein Portage an der Wasserscheide zwischen den Entwässerungsbecken des Nelson und Hayes Rivers in der kanadischen Provinz Manitoba. Sie wurde bis zum 19. Jahrhundert von der Hudson’s Bay Company für Fellhandelsexpeditionen von York Factory aus in das kanadische Inland benutzt. Mit nur etwa 10 Metern zwischen dem Hayes und dem Echimamish River ist sie wahrscheinlich die kürzeste Portage zwischen zwei Entwässerungsbecken überhaupt.
