Louisiana Highway 81 (LA 81) is a state highway located in Pointe Coupee Parish, Louisiana. It runs 8.82 miles (14.19 km) in a generally north–south direction from LA 77 in Livonia to a second junction with LA 77 in Fordoche.

The route is L-shaped, essentially forming a loop off of LA 77. It parallels U.S. Highway 190 (US 190) from Livonia west to Lottie. It then turns north, immediately crossing US 190, and heads toward Fordoche. LA 81 is classified as a north–south route by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (La DOTD), but its signage does not carry directional banners.

From the southeast, LA 81 begins at an intersection with LA 77 in Livonia. LA 77 heads southeast toward Maringouin, eventually reaching I-10, and connects to US 190 immediately to the north. LA 81 proceeds westward out of Livonia, running parallel to US 190, and crosses the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) tracks at grade. 1.5 miles (2.4 km) later, LA 81 passes through an area known as Blanks and intersects LA 976, a short connector to US 190.
