State Route 772 is a north–south state highway in the south-central portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its southern terminus is at State Route 73 in Rarden, though signage shows it starting at mile marker 10. Leaving Rarden, the route increases elevation to Mount Joy, the highest point in Scioto County. Into Pike County, the route is briefly concurrent with State Route 32 and subsequently State Route 124. Following these concurrencies, State Route 772 continues its journey north through scenic terrain and small communities until it reaches its northern terminus at the U.S. Route 50 and State Route 104 concurrence in Chillicothe.
