The Native Route is an older name for a storage-proof settlement path in Eco Routes. Storage proofs are cryptographic evidence that a value or transaction was included in a specific block. Current Eco documentation does not list a Native Route. In the documented intent lifecycle, a solver fulfills the intent on the destination chain, a prover makes evidence of fulfillment available to the source chain, and settlement pays the claimant.
Per Eco's provers documentation, Hyperlane is the live prover for solver routes. The same page lists other prover implementations in the source code as a source inventory, not as active deployments or options a developer selects per transfer. Circle CCTP can appear as a token-transport leg in a route, which does not make it a prover. For how this fits money movement flows, see the Eco docs.
