245 Hidden Roads in ATS 1.57 (with Louisiana). Secret Roads, Towns and Easter eggs
The guide contains 245 hidden roads in 19 states (including Louisiana DLC) on American Truck Simulator. It is actual for January 2026, on ATS 1.57.
Some roads are periodically disappear during map reworks and some new are being added in new game versions. Mostly I added marked roads but also some easter eggs are available.
And we are waiting the new states in 2026 – announced Illinois and South Dakota, expansion to Canada in British Columbia.
I tried to avoid spoilers, mark only locations and removed hidden roads footages but if you prefer to to discover all hidden roads and secrets yourself better to skip the video.
Hidden and secret roads doesn’t affect percentage of map discovery.

Christmas Mega Map Combo for ETS2 1.57 – Tutorial – December, 22 2025
On the current version ETS2 1.57 we can combine map mods with or without Nordic Horizons DLC since Promods overlaps new expansion and I hold 2 setups – Mega Combo and Nordic Combo. Horizonless combo is good for them who still did not purchased latest SCS DLC and for fans of Promods (and its numerous add-ons).
This setup includes Promods, Roextended, Rusmap, EAA, Eurafrica, Poland Rebuilding, Grand Utopia and other maps. 45 maps, 93 files, RCs, fixes. As always please follow the instructions in video and note that combo designed to version 1.57 and requires all map DLCs (Nordic Horizons is optional and will not be available in this particular setup). Paid mods are optional.

It is all work in progress for now and not all details of new map DLC are clear but at least we know that following cities will be presented: Bloomington, Champaign, Chicago, Effingham, East St. Louis, Marion, Moline, Peoria, Rockford, Springfield, Quincy.
After Illinois we will see another state DLC – North Dakota and the next step hopefully will be in Canadian British Columbia expansion.

Map Combo Study 12.08.2025
With the version 1.57 for ETS2 and ATS we got new content expansions in Europe and America and in both games and not all mods are properly merged with them. So while you can update some mods and just go to the road, bigger setups may not be so easy especially when we talk about combined map mods. So the maximal and stable map combos are around the corner but I would recommend to stay on vanilla (base game+DLC) or roll back to 1.56 to run mega setups. Obviously on 1.56 you can’t enjoy Nordic Horizons or Louisiana but it is still a solution for max coverage.
Setups for 1.57 (especially European) are tricky and I’m on wip stage but it is Holidays period and I have not enough time to test combos so it takes time. No one like broken roads and CTDs so below you will find combos that works on 1.57 for ETS2 and 1.56 for ATS, and both setups doesn’t require latest map DLC (NH, Louisiana).
WIP and plans:
ETS2 1.57:
Map Combo with incorporated Nordic Horizons (soon)
Map combo without NH but bigger size (later in December)
ATS 1.57:
Map combo with incorporated Louisiana DLC (next week or later)
As always I strongly recommend to start with beginner’s guide and do not ask same questions again and again in the comments and TG channel.
Before you start please always check if the guide you see latest and actual (check dates and videos availability). Please also follow rules and requirements – correct load order, DLCs compatibility and avoid extra mods that did not mentioned in the guide. In some cases you need to create new profile for stable work of maps especially if your old profile have pieces of deleted mods, garages, trucks etc.
Every single mod (not only map) can break the game and you will have a problems. I do not support stolen or pirated content so if you use it – Trucksim isn’t your place.

Guide How to Download and Setup Promods 2.77
New Promods 2.77 is mostly compatibility release and it doesn’t friendly to new map DLC Nordic Horizons, overlap it and even if you purchased it you will see Promods content instead of vanilla. But if you are ready for this trade off or still have no Nordic Expansion you can enjoy new version on the latest ETS2 1.57. In the guide below as always you will find step by step instruction, but please watch carefully and don’t ask about archives on the Youtube.
