Hidden Roads Study – October, 13 2026

A quick recap what is going on with hidden (or secret) roads in ATS and ETS2. First of all – Proximity Exploration feature released in 1.61 can help you to find most of the secret roads without any guides. You can turn on or off the feature but anyway it is the biggest change in the game on this topic since 2022, when hidden roads came as markable objects in version 1.44. For sure some roads are real secret and even with this feature you need to go around all roads to find the location of unmarked path. So for some time I will continue to update my guides.
Big guides need to be updated – for ETS2 I have to check what is wrong with roads number – double check how many roads we have and what I missed. For ATS with 1.61 we got new DLC South Dakota where 10 new roads found (video below) but additionally I also have to check again count of roads and correct it accordingly. It will take some time on my side. So below you can find current existent guides more or less actual on 1.61 but not fully accurate. Guides for Europe with 114 roads and 281 in America are available on my channel excluding South Dakota. But below you can see 10 new roads footages in this new expansion. And the next big update will be I guess closer to the end of the year with Iceland and British Columbia DLCs.
If I find any new roads or you suggest one I will not update it instantly since I skip mid-tier guide videos because of low views on YouTube. The same issue affects 100% discovery guides and map combo content. I know there’s interest from my audience, but without YouTube helping push this type of content, it quickly gets buried.

You can always check the complete list of cities with hidden paths here: https://trucksim.top/y9t6. It probably won’t reveal the exact secret road locations, but it can help you figure out if you missed any areas.

We have guides for 100% in both games but for Europe it is actual for 1.60 and there are no dramatic changes in 1.61 and bear in mind that if you combine ETS2 vanilla map with Promods as I did in below video, you will get 100% on that profile. In ATS 1.61 I added South Dakota DLC and other small pieces appeared with Road Trip.
Below you can find 100% for ATS and ETS2. As well as 100% on ProMods 2.84.
I’m not sharing my RoExtended profile with 100% since nobody asks.
I believe my guides will be less useful since starting of 1.61 we got Proximity Exploration feature and you can get your 100% with your truck or car (or later bus) without profile modifications and all this stuff. To be honest I’m so tired of this infinite race for 100% and I will do it as long as enjoy it on my side.

ATS 1.61 – 100% Explored map with all DLC including South Dakota (October 2026)

ETS2 1.60 – 100% Explored map with all DLC (July 2026, all map DLCs)

Promods 2.84 on ETS2 1.61 – 100% Explored Promods map (October 2026, including Vanilla, all DLC)

I do these discovery since 2017 and I discover whole map almost on every game versions including all expansions and reworks.

I’ve started my 1.61 combo journey from Europe and still working for American one since 2 new DLC takes all my gaming time. The map mods expansion for ETS2 to bigger numbers also write around the corner and I hope next week I will finalize my first mega setup. So today is a one new and one old combos below – ATS for version 1.60 and fresh ETS2.

Don’t forget about Beginner’s Guide which help new comers to dive to combos world. It were significant changes in 1.59 so I strongly recommend watching it everyone who did not touch configurations for a while. It will save you time, prevent recurring issues, and help you create a stable and enjoyable setup from the start.
