Route description

State Road 166 begins at the banks of the Ohio River just south of the small town of Tobinsport. Leaving the town, it heads straight north until the river bends to the west, at which point the road also bends to the west and hugs the banks of the river for a mile or so until it reaches State Road 66.

The highway is narrower than most state-maintained highways, and during times of high water levels on the Ohio River, it is often closed. The road surface is rough and undulating in places, this being caused by it being submerged for a prolonged period of time during the 1997 Ohio River Flood.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Tobin Township, Perry County.
