State Route 195 (SR 195) is a 3.6-mile-long (5.8 km) north–south state highway in the western portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. SR 195 has its southern terminus at an intersection with Hardin County Route 110 one mile (1.6 km) south of the village of McGuffey. Its northern terminus is at its junction with SR 309 about two miles (3.2 km) north of McGuffey. It is entirely located within western Hardin County.
SR 195 was created in the middle of the 1920s. Much of this two-lane highway outside of McGuffey travels amidst mostly open countryside. Before the 2010s, SR 195 continued south along the banks of the Scioto River to SR 235 in Roundhead Township. A majority of the portion of former SR 195 south of McGuffey traveled along the western banks of the Scioto River in one of its northernmost and narrowest stretches.
The route begins at a four-way intersection in Marion Township where Hardin County Route 110 travels east and west and CR 65 heads south. SR 195 heads due north and enters McGuffey just prior to its intersection with Cottonwood Road. As it passes through the village along Courtright Street, the highway passes amidst both homes and commercial businesses, as well as Upper Scioto Valley High School. Prior to departing McGuffey, SR 195 crosses a former railroad grade, and is abutted on the east side by some woods. As it re-enters Marion Township, the route enters back into open farm country, with a couple of homes appearing along the way. SR 195 crosses CR 90, and continues north past a small patch of woods amidst a few homes on the east side just prior to meeting TR 84. After intersecting CR 80, the route goes by a few more homes amidst the open fields prior to arriving at its endpoint at SR 309. Continuing north after SR 195 terminates is CR 65, which goes on to intersect SR 701 less than 0.50 miles (0.80 km) to the north.
