Route description

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).
