Maryland Route 260 is a state highway in Calvert County and Anne Arundel County, Maryland. Route 260 starts at the northern border of Calvert and Anne Arundel counties, branching off from Maryland Route 4 by way of an overpass interchange. It then proceeds diagonally southeast as a two-lane road, where it briefly passes through Anne Arundel County before re-entering Calvert County and intersecting with Maryland Route 2 in Owings. Past Owings, Route 260 takes a turn to the direct east and becomes a four-lane dual highway. Route 260 remains a dual highway until reaching the Chesapeake Beach town limits, where it returns to two lanes and ends at Maryland Route 261 near the Chesapeake Bay.

Along with Route 2-4, Route 260 is the only other four-lane divided highway in Calvert County.
