How to mark your travel route on a map

A single pin on a map is not enough to convey a whole journey. In TRAMFI you build a travel route from a main point and further places that lead the reader step by step through your trip.

Set the main point

Start with the main point — the central place of the trip, where the story begins. It sets the map's initial view and the recognition of country and continent.

Add places along the route

You add further stops as extra points (subpoints). Each is a place on the map tied to a part of the story — together they form your travel route.

Link places to content

As a reader scrolls the story, the map responds to the text and highlights the current place. This way the reader sees not only "what" but also "where" happened at each stage.

Keep a logical order

Arrange the points in the order of the trip — chronologically or by route. A consistent order lets the map tell the story as smoothly as the text.

This is the foundation of a good story with a map — start with our guide on how to create a travel map online, then refine it into an interactive map with pins. Mark your route in TRAMFI.

Frequently asked questions

How many places can I add to one story?

Besides the main point you can add several extra places along the route — enough to convey the course of a typical trip.

Does the route draw a line between points?

The points mark the successive places of the trip and highlight as the text scrolls; the story leads the reader from one to the next according to your narrative.
