Four modes for four kinds of walk
EchoTrail is not a playlist. You pick how much story you want before you start walking. The GPS still decides where a chapter belongs.
Discovery — short tales at places
Default mode. When you near a point of interest — a fortress wall, a named ridge, a church ruin — EchoTrail generates a short story from that GPS point, nearby OpenStreetMap places, weather and pace. Use this on a hike you already know, or a new trail where you still want silence between sparks.
Audiobook — one arc for the whole walk
A continuous narrative in chapters, from a prologue to an epilogue. Your route shapes the plot; you are not locked to a museum’s pre-recorded loop. This is the Turvenn+ mode for long days when you want company without managing tracks.
Silence — text, no voice
For walks where you want the forest to lead. EchoTrail shows a short poetic glint on screen every so often — no narrator in your ear. Ambient nature sound under other modes is a separate layer; Silence is the opposite of a podcast.
Explorer — city and harbour
Built for neighbourhoods like Gamlebyen in Fredrikstad: streets, food, events and heritage in walking distance. Same GPS trigger, different prompt — local rather than mountain.
EchoTrail is experience, not navigation. Bring a real map. Tell someone your plans.
