About Ranger Tales
Ranger Tales turns a drive or a hike through a park into a guided audio tour. As you reach each stop, your phone automatically plays a ranger's narration — no buttons to press, no screen to stare at. Just start the tour, put your phone away, and listen.
• Hands-free, GPS-triggered audio — stories play right as you arrive at each viewpoint, waterfall, and trailhead.
• Two ranger guides — warm narration plus folksy campfire tales of the area's history and legends.
• Download for offline — cache a whole tour before you go; works with no signal, deep in the park.
• A real trail map — see the route, every stop, and where you are.
• Lock-screen controls — pause, skip, and resume from your lock screen or car stereo.
Launch tours:
• Multnomah Falls & the Waterfall Loop — a driving tour of the Columbia River Gorge.
• Silver Falls — Trail of Ten Falls & Maple Ridge Loop — two walking tours of Oregon's Silver Falls State Park.
