New York State Route 160 (NY 160) is a 6.58-mile-long (10.59 km) north–south state highway mostly located within Schenectady County, New York, in the United States. The southern terminus of the route is at an intersection with NY 159 in the Duanesburg hamlet of Mariaville Lake. Its northern terminus is at a junction with NY 5S in the Rotterdam hamlet of Pattersonville. While its termini are both in Schenectady County, it briefly passes into Montgomery County near its midpoint.

Originally, NY 160 was little more than a loop route connecting NY 5S in Florida and Rotterdam to then-New York State Route 407 in Scotch Church when it was assigned in 1930. In 1981, NY 407, a connector between Mariaville Lake and Scotch Church, was replaced by a realigned NY 160 while NY 160's former routing through Florida was transferred to Montgomery County and redesignated as County Route 165 (CR 165).
