Path generation apparatus configured to generate target path of own vehicle traveling in own lane, includes: sensor configured to detect objects in surrounding area of own vehicle; and electronic control unit including processor and memory. Electronic control unit is configured to perform: recognizing adjacent vehicle traveling in adjacent lane adjacent to own lane from among detected objects; determining whether own lane is congested based on travel speed of own vehicle and determining whether adjacent lane is congested based on recognition result of adjacent lane; and generating target path of own vehicle. Generating target path includes generating target path on side away from adjacent lane with respect to that of case where own lane is determined to be congested and adjacent lane is determined to be congested, in case where own lane is determined to be congested and adjacent lane is determined not to be congested.
