South Carolina Highway 172 (SC 172) is a 8.6-mile-long (13.8 km) state highway in the U.S. state of South Carolina. The highway travels through rural areas of Orangeburg and Calhoun counties.
SC 172 begins at an intersection with US 178 (N Road) east-northeast of North, within Orangeburg County. This intersection also marks the southern terminus of SC 692, which begins a very brief concurrency with SC 172. They travel to the north-northeast. Approximately 1,000 feet (300 m) later, they split, with SC 172 heading to the east-northeast before it enters Calhoun County. It passes by the Do-Little Field airport just before it meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with US 21/SC 6 (Columbia Road/Caw Caw Road).
