Road 373 begins at an intersection with Provincial Trunk Highway 6 in Setting Lake. The highway begins to the southeast, paralleling and intersecting with local roads in a rural region of northern Manitoba. Houses and businesses ae scarce for the distance, except in the town at its other terminus, Norway House. Road 373 passes to the south of Duck Lake along the way, with several twists and turns coming at Cross Lake. There, Road 374 begins to the north along Road 373. Road 374 heads north across the lake to the town of Cross Lake via the Kichi Sipi Bridge.

There is a ferry service across the Nelson River at Whiskey Jack. East of the ferry the road parallels the Nelson River for most of its length. The highway heads to the southwest, intersecting mainly with local roads before entering Norway House at just past 100 miles (160 km). Just south of Norway House, Road 373 turns westward along the shores of Playgreen Lake and turns south soon after. Road 373 terminates at the entrance to the Norway House Indian Reservation at 110 miles.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:

    no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
    or thought:
    no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
    terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
    of escape open: no route shut,
