The Point Of Interest (POI) tool is used to link to existing POI that you placed on your route – select the text you want to link to a POI, and click the POI tool icon at the top of the editor. This will bring up your route map, and you can click on the POI you wish to link. If you want to add POIs to your route, just open up the standard route page in your personal account and follow these steps. Fill in as much information as you can for each of your POIs, and add photos, which will show up on the Ambassador route page.
The Point tool is used to identify specific spots along the route, such as summits, turns, hazards, or other places you would like your riders to notice – select the text you want to link to a point on your route map, and click the Point tool icon at the top of the editor. This will bring up your route map and you can click any point along your route to link it.

This will bring up your route map and you can use the elevation profile to select a section of your route to link it.
