Its north-western origin is a junction with the R307 (Dassenberg Drive) adjacent to Mamre Nature Garden north of Atlantis (south of Mamre). It heads south-south-east as Charel Uys Drive to enter the centre of Atlantis, where it becomes Reygersdal Avenue towards the east-south-east before bending south. After 10 kilometres, the R304 reaches a t-junction, where the road southwards becomes Old Mamre Road and the R304 turns to the east via a left turn to cross the N7 highway and enter the village of Philadelphia. [1]

From Philadelphia, the R304 continues east to reach Klipheuwel and meet the R302 (Klipheuwel Road), with which it is co-signed for one kilometre, heading north. After leaving the R302, the route heads south-east, crossing the R312 east of the Cape Winelands Airport before crossing the N1 highway. It then meets the R101 at a staggered junction east of Kraaifontein. The route proceeds south-south-east to end at a junction with the R44 and the R310 in Stellenbosch (north of the town centre).
