It begins at the Pontdrif Border Post with Botswana on the Limpopo River. From there, it runs southwards for 12 kilometres to reach a junction with the R572. The R572 joins the R521 and they are cosigned southwards for 46 kilometres to reach Alldays, where the R572 becomes the road westwards and the R521 remains as the road southwards. It heads southwards for 146 kilometres, meeting the western termini of the R523 and R522 routes at Vivo, to enter the city of Polokwane (capital of Limpopo), where it ends in the city centre at a junction with the R101.[1]
