State Route 215 (SR 215) is an east–west state highway in the southeastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. The western terminus of SR 215 is at a T-intersection with SR 821 just one-half mile (0.80 km) southeast of the village of Belle Valley and SR 821's junction with Interstate 77. Its eastern terminus is at another T-intersection, this time with SR 285 just outside the village of Sarahsville.
Created in the middle of the 1920s, SR 215 is a two-lane rural highway that primarily serves as a connector between the Noble County villages of Belle Valley and Sarahsville. Its routing has changed over the years, but it has always been in or just outside Noble County. The highway passes in the vicinity of Wolf Run State Park along its way.
All of SR 215 is situated within the central portion of Noble County. This state highway is not included as a part of the National Highway System.
SR 215 begins at a T-intersection with SR 821 nearly one-half mile (0.80 km) southeast of Belle Valley and Interstate 77 in Noble Township. The highway runs northeasterly through rural terrain that starts out as open field but quickly transitions into forest. After meeting Wolf Run Road, SR 215 abuts the southeastern boundary of Wolf Run State Park. The route passes the Hickory Hill Road (County Road 14) intersection, then turns east and crosses into Center Township. SR 215 climbs up and down hilly terrain that is generally open field in the foreground, with trees forming a very scenic background. A few homes now appear alongside the highway as it bends to the southeast, and curves back to the northeast just prior to arriving at its endpoint at a T-intersection with SR 285 just west of Sarahsville.
