Hidden and unmarked roads - USA - SOUTH - updated 2026/02/20
This guide contains only Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas. For other locations, please refer for the other guides: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3629081644 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3082451616 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=618897575
This is a list of all drivable roads not marked on the map and accessible without any mod or console commands, and the walkthrough on how to reach them.
It assumes you have ALL map DLCs released until now. So those hidden roads near the border that are physically located on one state, but it depends on the other state to be accessible, are listed under the state it's located.
It isn't supposed to be a guide to EASTER EGGS, although in some cases the unmarked roads lead to them.
It isn't supposed to be a guide to complete 100% of ACHIEVEMENTS either, but some of the unmarked roads are related to some of them. In these cases, the walkthrough will be marked as spoiler and you must hover the pointer over the black mask to show picture and description, LIKE THIS.
NOTE: if the achievement is directly related to hidden roads (for example, "Can You Keep a Secret?" in Kansas), then it's not marked as spoiler. That's why you are here after all.
This guide is organized by STATES and then by CITIES alphabetically. When the unmarked road isn't located in a city, the closest one will be used as reference.
Each screenshot has a map, with the unmarked road written on GREEN or RED, and the same colors are used on arrows and notes on the screenshots.
GREEN: the road doesn't have any UI roadblocks (glowing arrows or Xs where only AI drivers are allowed), invisible walls or hard objects blocking it, it's just not marked on map. Some times only easy-to-move objects (cones or signs, for example) are blocking it. You can go through it without problems - even when they have "no trucks allowed" signs. In some cases, these roads can be marked on map after discovered. 
RED: the road's blocked by UI roadblocks or hard objects, or simply aren't connected to the playable area. That is, the ones the players weren't supposed to be - they're supposed to be scenery only. You must use breaches and devs' oversights to explore these areas. In most cases, these breaches are fixed after some time. 
BLACK: the lines indicate the route player can drive after accessing the road. The text indicates points of reference, like landmarks, roads and cities - the same references listed on the walkthrough. 
Each unmarked road can be on one or more of the following categories:
SCENERY: it's supposed to be eye-candy only, without any real use besides taking a cool screenshot in a different place. Of course, any of the other categories are implicitily scenery too.
SHORTCUT: it's an alternative route connecting two or more marked roads. Just note that, besides the name, it isn't always the shortest or the easiest route.
EASTER-EGG: it's a message or joke left by the devs, or even a pop culture reference. Notice that only easter eggs related to unmarked roads are listed here, you must check other guides to find other easter eggs.
ACHIEVEMENT: an achievement will be unlocked after hitting a certain spot of the unmarked road. The achievement name is written besides this category. Again, only the ones related to unmarked roads are listed here.
MARKABLE: it's an unmarked road that appears as a dotted path on map after discovered, so it can be easily found later. It's a feature added on version 1.44.

Texarkana

Discovery: 17F
Drive to the small rest stop southwest of Texarkana, on US-59. A dusty road starts on its northmost entrance. It's marked by a misleading dead end sign. Just keep driving, paying attention to signs along your journey, and turn left (south) to discover another secret road.
Drive really careful if you're here at night. Apparently a wizard is on this area, knocking down trees and trucks to block the way. You must take a detour through a gap in the woods to return to the marked route. Keep driving slowly, and soon you'll be back to US-59, some miles south of the rest stop. 
Discovery: 17F
Near the intersection of I-30 and US-259, there's a dirty path running along the northeast ramp that simply reach to the trees. Drive carefully! 
Discovery: 17F
East of the intersection of I-30 and US-259, there's a service path connecting both directions of the interstate. There's a warning that it must be used by official or emergency vehicles only. But nothing will happen if you use it yourself. Return to freeway carefully.

Several truck wash locations were added to American Truck Simulator, possibly hinting a new feature. But different from the bus terminals and stops on Euro Truck Simulator 2, they were added as unmarked places here. This section will stay here until the related feature is released.
