It is an object of the present invention to obtain a parking support apparatus capable of calculating a parking route suited for the circumstances and the needs. A parking support apparatus 1 according to the present invention sets a plurality of candidate connection positions along a reverse direction route for a driver's own vehicle to leave from a target parking position, calculates a first connection route capable of reaching any one of the candidate connection positions, and calculates a first parking route by using the first connection route and the reverse direction route. Then, the parking support apparatus 1 judges whether the candidate connection position exists within a recognition range or not; and if the candidate connection position does not exist within the recognition range, the parking support apparatus 1 calculates a shortest steering wheel turning position which is obtained by moving the driver's own vehicle with a forward/reverse steering change, calculates a second connection route capable of reaching any one of the candidate connection positions from the shortest steering wheel turning position, and calculates a second parking route by using the second connection route and the reverse direction route. Then, when the second parking route can be calculated, the second parking route is selected as the parking route; and when the second parking route cannot be calculated, the first parking route is selected as the parking route.
