State Trunk Highway 108 (often called Highway 108, STH-108, or WIS 108) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Wisconsin.

Route description
WIS 108 begins at a junction with WIS 16 in the Town of Hamilton in La Crosse County, just north of the border of West Salem. The highway heads northeast along a brief concurrency with County Trunk Highway C (CTH-C), then runs east for a short distance before heading north. From here, the route passes through a rural area and climbs a winding ridge.
Past the ridge, WIS 108 continues north, intersecting two county highways and crossing Fleming Creek. It turns northeast briefly before continuing north, where it intersects with two more county highways. The highway continues east briefly where it meets CTH-C before curving to the northeast. It then crosses Davis Creek before entering Jackson County.
