Route description

SR 68 begins at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains northeast of Albertville. There are numerous curves along the highway as it travels through DeKalb County. The highway maintains a generally eastward trajectory between Albertville and Collinsville. East of an intersection with U.S. Route 11 (US 11), the highway turns to the southeast, continuing on this orientation until it approaches Leesburg.

At Leesburg, SR 68 and US 411 intersect and begin a 5 miles (8.0 km) concurrency as they cross Weiss Lake and Weiss Dam and approach Centre. SR 68 diverts from US 411 and begins a concurrency with SR 9 as the two highways again cross the lake, diverting from each other at Cedar Bluff. From there, SR 68 travels to the northeast as it approaches the Georgia state line.
