**State Trunk Highway 162** (often called **Highway 162**, **STH-162** or **WIS 162**) is a [state highway](/source/State_highway_(US)) in the U.S. state of [Wisconsin](/source/Wisconsin). It runs in north–south in southwest Wisconsin from [Stoddard](/source/Stoddard,_Wisconsin) to [Four Corners](/source/Four_Corners,_Monroe_County,_Wisconsin).

## Route description

The highway starts at its intersection with [WIS 33](/source/Wisconsin_Highway_33) and Division Street in [Stoddard](/source/Stoddard,_Wisconsin) and runs east along Coon Creek. After a [running concurrently](/source/Concurrency_(road)) with County Trunk Highway K (CTH-K), the highway goes through [Chaseburg](/source/Chaseburg,_Wisconsin) and continues northeast. The highway runs along a short concurrency with [US Highway 14](/source/U.S._Route_14_in_Wisconsin) (US 14) and [US 61](/source/U.S._Route_61_in_Wisconsin). This short concurrency is a [wrong-way concurrency](/source/Wrong-way_concurrency) because WIS 162 and US 61 are signed in opposing directions throughout its length. Just west of [Coon Valley](/source/Coon_Valley,_Wisconsin), the wrong-way concurrency ends as the highway runs north from it.[1]

After 6.6 miles (10.6 km), the highway runs concurrently with [WIS 33](/source/Wisconsin_Highway_33), which ends at [Middle Ridge](/source/Middle_Ridge,_Wisconsin). After its intersection with CTH-JB, the highway runs along Dutch Creek. It intersects [Interstate 90](/source/Interstate_90_in_Wisconsin) (I-90) before entering [Bangor](/source/Bangor,_Wisconsin). After a short concurrency with CTH-B, the highway runs north from Bangor. It runs concurrently with [WIS 16](/source/Wisconsin_Highway_16) before following Burns Creek. From the creek's end, the highway continues north until it terminates at [WIS 71](/source/Wisconsin_Highway_71) in [Four Corners](/source/Four_Corners,_Monroe_County,_Wisconsin).[1]
