Georgia route 28 runs North to South. It starts in Rabun County, Georgia.
The southern segment of the route begins at the Savannah River at the South Carolina state line in southeastern Augusta. The route continues northwest through downtown Augusta as Broad Street and Greene Street, reaching an interchange with Interstate 20 north of downtown. Still travelling northwest, the route enters Columbia County. The route then crosses the Savannah River again, re-entering South Carolina.
The northern segment cuts across the northeast corner of Rabun County, Georgia connecting North Carolina and South Carolina. It passes through the Pine Mountain community in eastern Rabun County. The southern end of this segment, at the bridge over the Chattooga River on the South Carolina state line, is a popular put-in and take-out point for kayakers and whitewater rafters.
