KY 292 begins at an intersection of Upper Stringtown Road and Stringtown Court southeast of Burnwell, within Pike County. It travels to the north-northwest, paralleling Tug Fork, and enters Burnwell. There, it passes McCoy Cemetery and crosses over Lower Stringtown Branch. It curves to the northeast and passes Phillips Cemetery before curving to the northwest. Then, it crosses over Maynard Branch. The highway then crosses over Buzzard Roost Hollow and curves to the southwest, where it enters Aflex. There, it crosses over Culler Hollow. It curves to the northwest and enters Goody, where it crosses over Pond Creek and intersects U.S. Route 119 (US 119). The two highways travel concurrently to the northwest and enter South Williamson.
