Route

edit

Its western origin is the R36 between Waterval Boven and Mashishing (Lydenburg), at the Chom se Hoogte Pass. It runs east through De Beersnek Pass, Patatanek, and Schoemanskloof pass[2] to join the N4. The R539 is cosigned with the N4 through the Montrose pass, but it leaves the N4 on the eastern side, heading north-east to end at the R37 between Sabie and Nelspruit.[1]
