The southern terminus of the route is at its junction with State Route 69 at Wilburn, a small unincorporated community in the southwestern part of the county that is also known as Bug Tussle. The northern terminus of the route is at its junction with U.S. Highway 278 at Holly Pond.

Route description

SR-91 is a two-lane route that travels through rural areas of Cullman County. Although it is signed as a northbound route, the first eight miles (13 km) of the route from its southern terminus actually travel in southeastwardly direction. At Arkadelphia, the route takes a virtual 90-degree turn to the left and assumes a northeastwardly trajectory, which it maintains for the duration of the route.

SR-91 junctions Interstate 65 eleven miles (18 km) southwest of Hanceville, and provides a connecting route for motorists heading to and from this town. Our Lady of the Angels Monastery, founded by Mother Angelica, is located near SR-91 between I-65 and Hanceville.

Much of the route between Wilburn and Interstate 65 is a narrow winding road through hilly rural terrain. In some places, the road is actually substandard for it to be a numbered state route. However, from I-65 north and east the roadway is substantially better and contains less sharp turns and short sightlines.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Cullman County.
