Starting at US 60 in Olive Hill, KY 2 meanders northwestward. As the route meets I-64 at a diamond interchange and KY 59 after that, it then meanders northeastward. On its way, it meets KY 1704, then KY 1025, then Wesleyville, then KY 182 (which forms a brief concurrency with KY 2), KY 396, and then KY 474 in Carter.

After that, both routes split off in a different direction, ending the concurrency. For KY 2, it then intersects KY 1459, KY 3307, KY 2433, and US 23. Going further, the route ends at KY 2541 in Greenup.
