Route Description
SR 13 begins at an intersection with James Anderson Highway, a four-lane divided highway that carries US 60 and SR 45, in Cumberland. The state highway heads southeast as a two-lane road and crosses the Cumberland–Powhatan county line. SR 13 continues through the communities of Tobaccoville, Ballsville, and Belona. At the hamlet of Macon, the state highway veers north, then turns east at an intersection with SR 1002 (Emmanuel Church Road). SR 1002 heads north a short distance to US 522's southern terminus at US 60. SR 13 briefly runs adjacent to US 60, then veers away through the county seat of Powhatan. At the county courthouse, the state highway meets the southern end of SR 300, which provides another connection to US 60. SR 13 passes through Worshams before reaching its eastern terminus at US 60 (James Anderson Highway) at Plain View.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Whose are the truly labored sentences? From the weak and flimsy periods of the politician and literary man, we are glad to turn even to the description of work, the simple record of the month’s labor in the farmer’s almanac, to restore our tone and spirits.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
