The highway then leaves Byrdstown and winds its way east through slightly rugged terrain to cross a bridge over the Wolf River before continuing east through farmland and passing through the Asbury community. SR 295 then comes to an end shortly thereafter at an intersection with US 127/SR 28 northwest of Pall Mall.
The entire route of SR 295 is a rural two-lane highway.[2]
