Touge: mountain roads
LA Canyons is the highest-rated map on this list: 42 km of the Angeles Crest in the mountains above Los Angeles. From the same author, Pacific Coast covers 23 km of Highway 1 through Big Sur, along cliffs and with barely any guardrails. Also in LA are Todd K’s maps: Mulholland Drive (17.7 km, with an AI race and a free mode with two-way traffic), Topanga Canyon (20 km, from the Pacific Coast Highway to Mulholland) and Santa Monica Mountains, captured with photogrammetry, with eight modes and traffic, though it weighs 2.3 GB.
In Japan, Gunsai Touge recreates the Gunma Cycle Sports Center, the touge from the Hot Version videos, rebuilt by Project Kaido with seasons and CSP rain. If you prefer a made-up road, Mountain Route is 32 km through forests with uphill, downhill and AI. And in Spain, l’Arrabassada climbs from Barcelona towards Tibidabo (5 out of 5 from 30 votes).
Free roam: maps for aimless driving
The Shutoko Revival Project (SRP) recreates Tokyo’s Shuto Expressway and is the base of many traffic servers; it’s a free download from its official website, with map version 0.9.3 and Car Pack 3.6. Kanazawa Free Roam adds more than 50 km inspired by Kanazawa, with a circuit, rallycross, a drift area, a highway and AI traffic.
- Union Island: a Caribbean island with more than 30 km of roads and two short AI routes. One of Ben O’Bro’s highest-rated mods.
- Glencoe: about 120 km of real roads and forest tracks in the Scottish Highlands.
- Road to Lake Louise: about 200 fictional km through the Canadian Rockies, with roads, tracks, an oval and a rally stage.
- High Force: about 30 miles of the North Pennines in northern England, by Brun, the author of Donington Park.
- The Evo Triangle: the roughly 32 km Welsh route, both directions, with AI.
- Wicklow Mountains: narrow roads in the Wicklow Mountains south of Dublin.
- Autobahn: 30 km of fictional German autobahn with AI that keeps right, for top-speed runs. Only 38 MB.
Public roads turned into circuits
Two Fat-Alfie mods are among the highest-rated in all of Assetto Corsa and run on roads: Feldbergring, an 11.6 km German circuit used from 1950 to 1954 (4.99 from 497 votes), and Fonteny, 26 km and 83 corners through the Morvan nature park in France (4.99 from 437). For the Nordschleife, Nordschleife Tourist Enhanced adds seven Touristenfahrten-style layouts to Kunos’s official Nordschleife, with AI at track-day pace.
Traffic, servers and requirements
Several maps include their own AI traffic (Kanazawa, Mulholland Drive or Santa Monica Mountains), but the dense traffic on Japanese expressways usually comes from online servers running maps like SRP. Almost all install with Content Manager and look much better with Custom Shaders Patch plus Sol or Pure. The steps are in how to install Assetto Corsa mods, and joining servers is covered in Assetto Corsa servers.
