Kentucky Route 261 (KY 261) is a 42.605-mile-long (68.566 km), east–west state highway that traverses two counties in north-central Kentucky, as well as two additional counties in northwest Kentucky.
KY 261 begins at a junction with KY 54 on the east side of Fordsville, located in northeastern Ohio County. It then traverses the southernmost tip of Hancock County. The highway intersects KY 2124, along with a few more rural state highways that connect this particular area to Hawesville, the county seat of Hancock County.
