『あるきた』 is a walking application designed for the iPhone, particularly aimed at promoting health and fitness among users in the Kita-ku area. This free app automatically tracks daily steps, distance, and the number of times users stand up to combat prolonged sitting. It offers a unique feature called the "あるきたコースチャレンジ," which includes 19 recommended walking routes that can be attempted multiple times after completion.

In addition to tracking physical activity, the app allows users to log daily weight and blood pressure, view graphs of their activity, and access health-related articles. Users can earn points based on their walking habits and other health metrics, which can be redeemed for rewards. The app also features a ranking system, notifications from Kita-ku, and information about health initiatives, making it a comprehensive tool for those looking to improve their fitness while enjoying the local area.
