PA 928 begins at the Maryland border in Thompson Township, where the road continues south into that state as Tollgate Ridge Road. From the state line, the route heads northeast on two-lane undivided Tollgate Ridge Road, running through agricultural areas with sparse homes. PA 928 turns east onto Big Cove Tannery Road, making a curve to the northeast. The road continues through more farmland with some woods and residences, crossing the Licking Creek and passing through the community of Dickeys Mountain. Farther northeast, the route heads into more forested areas, running along the western base of Dickeys Mountain. PA 928 crosses into Ayr Township and continues through more woodland with some farm fields and residences, passing through Potts Mills. Farther north, the route crosses Cove Creek and passes through Big Cove Tannery before reaching its northern terminus at US 522.[2][3]
