On new version for both ATS and ETS2 1.59 it was added numerous secret roads. In Europe it is Benelux rework and Volvo Experience Center. for America – new Illinois DLC. I just updated ETS2 guide adding 4 new roads in Luxembourg, Netherlands and Sweden (see below video) but for ATS it would be bigger guide since the total count of hidden roads now more than 267 and the journey in Illinois is in progress so probably the count will be bigger. So American guide will take time and I skipped about 18 Route 66 paths for now to provide more consistent list.

The reason I mostly skip mid-tier guide videos comes down to how YouTube ranks and promotes content. Older videos usually appear first, while guide-style videos below them tend to have very poor discoverability and low view counts. I don’t really want to spend dozens of hours making a guide that ends up with 1000 views. (ATS version guide currently has around 1.4K views) 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.

Below you’ll find all hidden roads in ATS in version 1.57 without mentioned above updates and fresh one for ETS2. You can also 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.

I’ve been covering hidden secret roads in both American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2 since 2022, when the feature was first introduced in ETS2 and ATS 1.44. For now, though, I’ll likely slow down these uploads a bit and let others continue expanding the coverage.

ETS2 (updated 06.01.2026, actual on 1.59 with Benelux Rework and all map DLCs, 114 roads so far)

ATS (updated 12.26.2025, actual on 1.57 with Louisiana DLC, 245 roads so far)
