Pennsylvania Route 425 (PA 425) is an 24-mile-long (39 km) state highway located in York County in Pennsylvania. The southern terminus is at PA 851 in Fawn Grove. The northern terminus is at PA 124/PA 624 in Craley. PA 425 is a two-lane undivided road that runs through rural areas in southeastern York County. The route heads north from Fawn Grove and passes through Woodbine before it forms a concurrency with PA 74 in Airville. From here, PA 425 heads northeast to York Furnace, where it briefly follows the west bank of the Susquehanna River before heading northwest away from the river. The route continues west to New Bridgeville, where it turns north and curves west to continue to its terminus in Craley.
In 1928, the road between Woodbine and PA 74 in Airville was designated PA 851 while PA 124 was designated onto the road between north of York Furnace and Craley. PA 923 was designated in 1930 as a short spur from PA 124 south to York Furnace. In 1937, PA 124 was rerouted to head south from York Furnace to PA 851 in Fawn Grove, replacing all of PA 923 along with the alignment of PA 851 between Woodbine and Airville. PA 425 was designated in the 1960s to replace the stretch of PA 124 between PA 851 in Fawn Grove and PA 624 in Craley, with the eastern terminus of PA 124 cut back to Craley.
