The northern section of WIS 76 between Greenville and Bear Creek via Shiocton is remarkably unchanged since the 1920s and passes through rural areas.

The trunkline between Greenville and Shiocton via Stephensville is particularly scenic with views over the gently undulating and unspoiled countryside.

Wisconsin Highway 76 (WIS 76) begins at a roundabout intersection of West Murdock Avenue and Jackson Street in Oshkosh.

Proceeding north, the highway crosses US Route 10 (US 10) and passes Appleton International Airport as it bypasses Appleton, where it also crosses WIS 96 and WIS 15.

In Shiocton the route runs concurrently with WIS 54 before leaving to go north.
