Route description

PA 864 begins at an intersection with PA 87 in the hamlet of Farragut, Pennsylvania, within Upper Fairfield Township. The route proceeds eastward through Farragut, passing local residences and fields before curving into a mix of woods and fields. PA 864 continues winding for a couple miles, curving back and forth between the northeast and southeast. Another curve is made after the intersection with Simpler Hollow Road. The winding nature continues into a stretch of houses separated by long driveways after Good Shepherd Road. After turning to the northeast, and soon the east, PA 864 intersects with Fairfield Center Road, where it turns passes several farms. After the intersection with Heilman Road, PA 864 curves to the northeasts once again, leaving Upper Farfield Township in favor of Mill Creek Township, where the dense wood begins to take over once again. This is short-lived, as PA 864 continues through Mill Creek, passing several farms before entering the hamlet of Huntersville. Huntersville consists of a few homes off to the side on Rabbittown Road.
After leaving Huntersville, PA 864 turns to the southeast and enters Wolf Township. Through Wolf Township, the route remains a two-lane rural road, passing some residences before returning to dense woodlands near Lower Rynearson Road. The road makes several bends between the south and east before Laurel Run Road, where it turns to the southeast once again. The dense woods continue for another mile before PA 864 enters the borough of Picture Rocks, where it gains the moniker Laurel Run Road through downtown. The route crosses Railroad Street before intersecting with U.S. Route 220 at North Main Street. This intersection serves as PA 864's eastern terminus. The right-of-way continues four blocks west to Water Street as Elm Street.
