Highway 81 (MT 81) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Montana. The route begins at an intersection with MT 80 north of the hamlet of Arrow Creek. The highway extends eastward from this point for approximately 42 miles (68 km), ending at an intersection with U.S. Route 191 (US 191) at the post office of Brooks. The landscape traversed by Highway 81 is uneven and largely rural, used mainly for agriculture and livestock grazing. For much of its length, the highway is roughly paralleled by the main line of Central Montana Rail, which is headquartered in Denton.
Before receiving its current designation, Highway 81 was designated as Montana Secondary Highway 235.
