The highway follows Regent Street from downtown Fredericton up a large hill to the edge of the city, where it continues south to New Maryland, Nasonworth, Beaver Dam Tracyville and Tracy at Route 645. From Tracy, the highway turns east along the South Branch of the Oromocto River to Fredericton Junction. Route 101 then turns southeast, paralleling the New Brunswick Southern Railway line through Blissville, Hoyt and Wirral crossing Route 7 to its end at Eagle Rock road at Welsford.
