State Route 212 (SR 212) is a two-lane east–west state highway that runs within Stark, Tuscarawas, Carroll, and Harrison Counties in eastern Ohio. The western terminus of SR 212 is at U.S. Route 250 near Beach City, and its eastern terminus is at SR 151 in Bowerston. The route passes through rural areas but passes through small villages including Beach City, Bolivar, Zoar, Sherrodsville, and Leesville. It largely follows the valleys formed by the Tuscarawas River and Conotton Creek.
SR 212 begins at a Y-intersection with US 250 in rural Sugar Creek Township in the southernmost portion of Stark County. The route heads northeast and almost immediately enters the village of Beach City as Redwood Avenue. In the center of the village, it intersects SR 93 (3rd Avenue) at a stop-controlled intersection. After exiting the village, the route passes the Beach City Airport before it begins to follow the Stark–Tuscarawas county line for about one mile (1.6 km). While on the county line, SR 212 intersects SR 21. The entire right-of-way of SR 212 briefly reenters Stark County before fully entering Tuscarawas County. In this area, the route crosses the Tuscarawas River twice. The route enters Bolivar on Poplar Street and travels through a residential neighborhood before coming to an intersection with Park Avenue. SR 212 heads south along Park Avenue heading through more residential areas before making a left turn onto an unnamed road south of the downtown area. Just past this intersection, SR 212 has an interchange with Interstate 77 at its exit 93. After crossing the Tuscarawas River again, the route heads southeast paralleling the river. After passing through the village of Zoar, SR 212 reaches a T-intersection with SR 800 in Fairfield Township.
