Just north of Wilmore, KY 29 merges with U.S. Route 68 for 0.590 miles (0.950 km) before leaving US 68 and turning east heading towards Nicholasville.

The road heads through woodland with some homes and turns to the east, passing under a Norfolk Southern railroad line.

KY 29 splits from US 68 by heading southeast on two-lane undivided Wilmore Road and continues through agricultural areas with some residential development.

KY 29 becomes undivided again and passes through residential and commercial areas, coming to another bridge over the Norfolk Southern line.

The road becomes West Maple Street and runs past more homes before intersecting the southern terminus of KY 2332 and heading into the downtown area.
