The R524 is a Regional Route in South Africa.

[1] It is an east–west route, and its westernmost point is a junction with N1 at Louis Trichardt.

From there, it runs to Thohoyandou, where the R523's eastern end forms a junction with it.

After leaving Thoyandou, it runs east, where it intersects with the northern end of the R81 at Nyavani.

From that point, it heads more north-easterly and terminates at the Punda Maria Gate of Kruger National Park.
