Pennsylvania Route 994 (PA 994) is a Pennsylvania highway which runs for 27 miles (43 km). It runs from Pennsylvania Route 26 in Entriken, Pennsylvania to U.S. Route 522 in Orbisonia, Pennsylvania.

This highway crosses Raystown Lake via a bridge over the lake. Fireworks are held at the Raystown Lake Resort on Memorial Day Weekend, July 3 & the Sunday night before Labor Day. The fireworks at the resort are watched on the lake but they can be seen from the bridge because the resort is just south of the Route 994 bridge which crosses Raystown Lake.

Traveling east from Entriken, the route travels to the southeast before turning to the north and making a U-turn to parallel the shore of Raystown Lake. Route 994 then crosses the lake twice, once on a small bridge crossing a small "finger" of the lake and the second time on a bridge that is combination of a land bridge and a man-made bridge. Following the second crossing, the route returns to a southeasterly path.

For the next 4.5 miles (7.2 km), Route 994 parallels the southern border of the Trough Creek State Park, turning to the south in the progress. The route returns east near Quadrant Route 3019 in Cooks before taking an erratic path eastward due to the terrain up to an intersection with Route 655 south of Saltillo. After forming a short 170-yard (160 m) concurrency with Route 655, Route 994 continues east to Three Springs.

In the center of Three Springs, Route 994 intersects the southern terminus of Route 747 and the former southern terminus of Route 829. Route 994 takes the south exit at this intersection, curving to the east outside of town and gradually shifts northeast toward Orbisonia.
