Route description
WIS 68 begins at a junction with WIS 33 at the corner of East State Street and Spring Street in downtown Fox Lake. The highway heads east as State Street, running concurrently with County Trunk Highway A (CTH-A) and CTH-C. Heading three blocks west past Fireman's Park on the east side of the city, WIS 68 turns northeast on Waupun Street to East Hamilton Street. East State Street continues southeast out of the city, carrying the two county highways.

It continues north for three blocks before terminating at WIS 49, known locally as Main Street, at the Dodge-Fond du Lac county line.
