ToonRoute: your route as a cartoon video
Chapters
About this video
ToonRoute turns a route into a cartoon fly-along video. Drop in a GPX, FIT or KML file, or draw the route on a map, and it builds a bright 3D world from real maps: the hills, towns, roads, rivers and landmarks, with sheep, cows and boats along the way, and your rider, runner, walker, car, kayak or plane going round it.
Every clip in this trailer is the app's own output: a Tour de France stage, Alpe d'Huez, a flight over Corsica, a fell walk in the Lake District, a 10K round Edinburgh, the Bealach na Bà by car, the River Wye by kayak, an event briefing and a three-day tour of Mallorca.
You can change the look (golden hour, winter, night, blocks), pick who goes, cut between six live cameras in the Multi-cam editor, and make it wide for YouTube or tall for your phone. A tour of several days can be one video in chapters. ToonRoute is in beta, and free until January 2027.
Transcript
Every route starts as a line on a map.
But it can't show you the hills, the towns, or the sheep.
ToonRoute can.
Drop in your route, and it flies you down from space, onto the real place.
Every hill, town and castle comes from real maps. Nothing is made up.
A Tour de France stage. The hairpins of Alpe d'Huez. A flight over Corsica.
A fell walk in the Lakes. A 10K round Edinburgh. A Highland pass by car. A river, by kayak.
Or brief your riders for the big day, with every feed stop on the way.
And the world is alive. Sheep turn to watch, birds take off, and the camera leans into the bends.
Then it's arms up at the finish.
Make it yours. Golden hour, winter, night, or built from blocks.
Pick who goes, on the ground or in the air.
Or be the director. Six live cameras in the Multi-cam editor, and a key to cut to each.
Make it wide, or tall for your phone.
Going further? A tour of several days becomes one video, in chapters.
ToonRoute. Free while in beta, until January 2027.
