A vehicular trailer assist system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and having a field of view exterior of the vehicle. A control includes a processor for processing image data captured by the camera. The control, responsive to processing at the control of captured image data, determines a trailer angle of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. Responsive to determining the trailer angle, the control determines a trailer direction that is based at least in part on the determined trailer angle. The control is operable to determine a virtual destination location that is a location that is a predetermined distance from the trailer and in the determined trailer direction. Responsive to determining the trailer direction, and during a reversing maneuver of the vehicle and trailer, the control controls steering of the vehicle to direct the trailer in the determined trailer direction toward the virtual destination location.
