Texas State Highway 61 (SH 61) is a 21.426-mile (34.482 km) state highway in southeast Texas. It connects Anahuac in Chambers County to Devers in Liberty County.
The southern terminus of SH 61 is in Anahuac, along Washington Avenue; state maintenance begins just south of Stowell Street. The route travels north into Anahuac before turning to the east. It passes the Chambers County Airport before an intersection with SH 65; SH 61 turns to the north, while SH 65 continues east. SH 61 crosses IH 10 near the community of Turtle Bayou, northeast of Lake Anahuac. The route travels north into Liberty County before reaching its northern terminus in Devers at US 90.
SH 61 was designated by 1926 along the southern portion of the route previously numbered SH 35A. Its official designation has remained unchanged since the 1939 redescription of the Texas highway system.
