Route description

WIS129 begins at a modified T Intersection with US61/WIS35/WIS81 in the Town of South Lancaster, southeast of the city of Lancaster. (US61/WIS35/WIS81 continues northeast into the city of Lancaster before WIS35/WIS81 diverges to head west, with WIS35 heading toward Bloomington and WIS81 heading toward Cassville. US61/WIS35/WIS81 heads south, with WIS81 quickly diverging to head southeast toward Platteville and US61/WIS35 continuing south toward Tennyson and Dickeyville and then on to Dubuque, Iowa.) For its entire route WIS is two-lane road located in rural agricultural area.

From it southern terminus, WIS129 heads briefly northeast before curving to head north for the remainder of its route. About from the beginning of the highway, WIS129 crosses Lincoln Road, which connects with Lancaster, and approximately later it reaches County Trunk Highway A (CTH‑A). Between Lincoln Road and CTH‑A, WIS129 runs along the eastern border of the city of Lancaster. (CTH‑A heads easterly to Union, Wisconsin Highway 80, and Rewey, before ending at U.S. Route 151. CTH‑A heads west through Lancaster as Elm Street to pass by the Grant County Fairgrounds and Lancaster High School, before connecting with US61 [Madison Avenue]. Beyond Lancaster, CTH‑A, continues westerly toward Bloomington and Bagley.)

North of CTH‑A, WIS 129 continues north to cross City Limits Road, where it also leaves the Town of South Lancaster and enters the Town of North Lancaster. (City Limits Road heads briefly east before reaching a dead end, after about , and heads east into Lancaster to end at US61.) After about another WIS129 curves to the northwest immediately before reaching it northern terminus at US61. (The road continues very briefly northwest before turning west and eventually turning south to reconnect with US61 in the city of Lancaster. US61 heads southwesterly into the city of Lancaster and northerly toward Fennimore and La Crosse.)
