Pennsylvania Route 371 (designated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation as SR 0371) is a 23.45-mile (37.74-kilometer) long state highway located in Susquehanna and Wayne Counties. The western terminus is at Route 171 / Route 374 near the community of Union Dale in Herrick Center. The eastern terminus is the New York state line in Damascus Township on the Delaware River. It continues as Sullivan County Route 114 in New York towards New York State Route 97.

Route 371 originates as a road cut in 1791 and later used for the Newburgh and Cochecton Turnpike in 1806. The new turnpike was finished in 1811 and renamed as the Great Bend and Newburgh Turnpike in accordance for the extension to Great Bend, Pennsylvania. The turnpike was abandoned in 1853. Route 371 was originally designated along the turnpike route in 1936 by the Department of Highways from Great Bend to Damascus. The route remained intact until 1954, when the route was truncated back to Route 171 in Herrick Center. The route was replaced by Route 374 and Route 848 in 1961.
