Route Description
State Route 716 begins at an intersection with State Route 705 in the Darke County village of Osgood. The highway heads northward through downtown Osgood and then into the rural regions, which includes spontaneous residential homes and fields. Not far after Osgood, State Route 716 intersects with Township Road 7 (Darke-Mercer County Line Road), which as stated, runs along the county line. The highway crosses the line into Mercer County and continues northward through rural areas. There is an intersection with a local road, Indian Trail Road, soon after.
State Route 716 remains mainly unchanged for a little while until it nears the Marion Township village of Maria Stein. It then passes Marion Local High School. In Maria Stein, it intersects with State Route 119. In Maria Stein, the highway is more urbanized, with more homes and commercial buildings surrounding the highway. However, this is only for a short time, as State Route 716 leaves Maria Stein after the intersection with State Route 119. The route continues northward for a short distance into Chickasaw, where it terminates at State Route 274.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Do not require a description of the countries towards which you sail. The description does not describe them to you, and to- morrow you arrive there, and know them by inhabiting them.”
