New York State Route 167 is a state highway in New York, running from the Otsego County village of Richfield Springs to the Herkimer County village of Dolgeville.

NY 169 begins as Church Street in Richfield Springs. As it leaves the village, it enters Herkimer County for the balance of its route.

A two-lane highway its entire length, NY 167 is narrow and winding through southern Herkimer County. It crosses NY 168 diagonally in Paines Hollow and briefly overlaps with NY 5S.

In Little Falls, NY 167 crosses the Mohawk River/Erie Canal, then uses Albany Street for one block, then South Ann Street in a southerly direction, to meet NY 5, turning left to join with it. At the Albany Street/South Ann Street intersection, Northbound NY 167 abuts Southbound NY 169 which uses the same intersection without crossing. Southbound, NY 167 leaves NY 5 west of the overpass, looping backward on Albany Street and then turning right across the river. With NY 5, NY 167 joins with NY 169 on the eastern edge of town. NY 167 then turns left, heading uphill before leaving the city.

NY 167 then follows a winding path along the West Canada Creek on the eastern edge of Herkimer County, ending in Dolgeville at NY 29.
