State Route 378 (SR 378) is a north–south state highway in the south-central portion of Ohio. SR 378's southern terminus is at SR 243 about 5 miles (8.0 km) south of the unincorporated community of Willow Wood. Its northern terminus is at SR 141 nearly 4 miles (6.4 km) northwest of Willow Wood.
Created in the mid-1930s, and existing entirely in Lawrence County, SR 378 parallels Symmes Creek for its entire length. A part of the northern segment of the state highway runs through a small section of Wayne National Forest.
SR 378 begins at a four-way stop-controlled intersection in Union Township, within the unincorporated community of Getaway. SR 243 heads west and south from this intersection while the driveway to a vocational school travels east. SR 378 heads north through the Symmes Creek valley. The route leaves Union Township and enters Windsor Township. The route heads through an S-curve to stay near the creek as it continues north. Near the community of Willow Wood, SR 378 intersects and forms a concurrency with SR 217. The two routes wind their way west for about 0.6 miles (0.97 km) before SR 378 breaks off of the concurrency to continue heading north along the creek's path. Now heading in a more north-northwest direction for the remainder of the route, SR 378 is briefly within the boundaries of the Wayne National Forest. SR 378 enters Lawrence Township and then enters Aid Township before ending. Within the community of Aid, SR 378 ends at an intersection with SR 141.
