The movement of feet in the position to walk on trail which is tilted is called eversion and inversion movement.

Explanation:

Eversion and inversion movement:

In eversion movement, foot sole rotates away from the midline of body or median plane (turn outwards) while in inversion movement, sole of foot rotates towards the midline of body or median plane (turn inwards).
