Route

Its northern terminus is a junction with the N6 at Stutterheim. It heads south-south-west through Braunschweig to King William's Town (Qonce), where it enters as Alexander Avenue and meets the N2 and the R63 at the four-way junction with Maitland Road. All three routes join to become the road westwards (Grey Street) up to the Buffalo Road junction, where the N2 & R63 become Buffalo Road northwards while the R346 becomes Buffalo Road southwards.

The R346 leaves the town heading south-south-east to pass through Zwelitsha, where it crosses the Buffalo River. It continues south, then east, then south again, to reach its end at a junction with the R72 just north-west of Kidd's Beach.
