Route description

PR 326 begins in the town of Arborg at an intersection with PTH 68 at the south side of town. It heads north along Main Street for a short distance to cross a bridge over the Icelandic River before making a sharp right onto River Road at the southern fringes of downtown. It parallels the north bank of the Icelandic River as it travels through neighbourhoods before the highway makes a left onto Arborg Avenue, leaving town shortly thereafter and entering the Municipality of Bifrost-Riverton. The highway heads north through rural farmland for several kilometres, passing through a switchback before having a junction with PR 329 just west of Ledwyn. PR 326 now makes a sharp left onto Road 138N and travels along the southern side of Okno, with an access road via Road 10E, and the north side of Vidir Airport before the asphalt turns to gravel. PR 326 comes to an end a few kilometers later at an intersection with PR 233 just north of the hamlet of Vidir.
