After crossing the Muscatatuck River, the road enters the town of Vernon.

Both routes leave the town limit as they approach the Muscatatuck County Park and the city of North Vernon.

For the remainder of the route, SR 7 travels northwestward, serving Country Squire Lakes, Queensville, Scipio, and Elizabethtown.

Shortly thereafter, the route ends at SR 46, where thru traffic continues toward downtown Columbus.

[11][12] Three bronze markers in Madison, North Vernon, and Columbus designate the road as the "Guthrie Trail".
