Route[]

The R35 begins in Amersfoort, at a junction with the N11 National Route. It begins by going westwards as Sybrand van Niekerk Street before turning towards the north-west direction. It crosses the Vaal River 25 kilometres from Amersfoort before heading northwards.

It enters Morgenzon from the south as De Jager Street and crosses the R39 Road (Steyn Street) before heading northwards out of the town to cross the Blesbokspruit and Kwaggalaagte rivers. Entering Bethal from the south, it reaches a t-junction with the N17 National Route and joins it to be co-signed northwards through the town centre. At the junction with Simon Street, the R38 Route joins the N17/R35 co-signage northwards. Just north of the town centre, the R35 and R38 split from the N17 to become the road eastwards. After 1 kilometre, the R35 splits from the R38 to become its own road northwards. After 11 kilometres, the R35 meets the south-eastern terminus of the R544 Road from Witbank.

The R35 continues northwards, crossing the Olifants River and Leeuwfontein and then intersected at a t-junction by the R542 at Komati. Continuing northwards, it interchanges with the N4 freeway (Maputo Corridor) just south of Middleburg where it becomes Samora Machel Street. The R35's northern terminus ends when Samora Machel Street meets the main east-west road of Cowen Ntuli Street (N11; R555; R104) as a t-junction in Middelburg's CBD.
