Route 560, or Kaua'i Belt Road-North Shore section, is a ten-mile (16 km) scenic road on the northern shore of the island of Kauaʻi in Hawaii. The entire road is signed as the Kuhio Highway. Hawaii Route 56 was once signed on this route before it was downgraded to Hawaii Route 560 in the late 1960s. The Kuhio Highway is named after Jonah Kūhiō Kalaniana'ole, the second non-voting congressional delegate from territorial Hawaii.
