Pennsylvania Route 453 (PA 453) is a 43.7-mile-long (70.3 km) state highway located in Huntingdon, Blair, and Clearfield Counties in Pennsylvania. The southern terminus is at US 22 in Water Street; the northern terminus is at PA 879 in Curwensville.

PA 453 begins at an intersection with US 22 in the community of Water Street in Morris Township, Huntingdon County, heading north on three-lane undivided Birmingham Pike, carrying two northbound lanes and one southbound lane. The road heads through woods before heading into agricultural areas and intersecting the western terminus of PA 45. At this point, the route becomes concurrent with PA 45 Truck and narrows to two lanes as it heads northwest through more open farmland with occasional woods. PA 453 enters Tyrone Township in Blair County and turns north through more agricultural areas as an unnamed road, gaining a second northbound lane before also gaining a second southbound lane. The route eventually narrows from four lanes back to two lanes and heading northwest through wooded areas in a cut. The road crosses the Little Juniata River and Norfolk Southern's Pittsburgh Line into Warriors Mark Township in Huntingdon County and becomes Birmingham Pike again, heading through more woodland along the northeast bank of the river and passing through Shoenberger. The route passes through Birmingham before heading back into Warriors Mark Township and running through more rural areas.
