Kentucky Route 321 (KY 321) originates at a junction with U.S. Highway 23 north of Paintsville, Kentucky in Johnson County, Kentucky, United States. The route continues through Johnson County to terminate at KY 1428 in Prestonsburg in Floyd County.
KY 321 begins at an intersection with KY 1428 in Prestonburg, Floyd County, heading north on North Lake Drive, a three-lane road with a center left-turn lane. The road passes businesses with some nearby woodland and homes. The route passes to the east of Prestonburg Community College and narrows to a two-lane unnamed road, curving northeast through woods and running to the east of Levisa Fork. KY 321 passes more rural development and intersects the western terminus of KY 3024. The road turns to the north and winds through forested areas with occasional residential development. The route curves to the northwest and comes to an intersection with KY 3. At this point, KY 321 turns east to form a concurrency with KY 3, passing through more rural areas with some development including Highlands Regional Medical Center. The road forms a short concurrency with KY 3051 before it curves to the north. KY 3 splits by heading to the east near Auxier. KY 321 continues northwest through forests and crosses into Johnson County.
