A walking world that moves with you. Walk the Parks turns the walking you already do into living, illustrated journeys through the great parks and trails of the world. Connect Apple Health once. From then on, every real step carries your hiker along a real route: past the landmarks, through each place's own weather, season by season, under a sun and moon that keep the park's real hours, toward a mountain that grows on the horizon as you close in on it. Journeys through the parks, not miles between them. Every route is a real tour with real mileage, so a landmark arrives every few days and a finished park every couple of weeks: Acadia's island loop, the Grand Canyon's rim, Yosemite's valley and high country, Kilimanjaro camp by camp. A WORLD THAT ANSWERS YOUR STEPS • The scene is drawn live, not photographed, and every walk looks like the real place: Half Dome over Yosemite Valley, red rock at Uluṟu, the rainforest canopy over the Amazon. Ridges, forests, canyons, coasts and snowfields shift as your route climbs and descends. • Weather true to each place. Rain, snow and mist follow ten years of weather records from near each trail, month by month: monsoon rain in Nepal, deep snow in a Yellowstone January, the Amazon's rainy season. • A real sky. The sun rises and sets on each park's own schedule for the time of year, the moon keeps its true phase, and on clear winter nights the northern lights dance over Hudson Bay and Lapland. • Summit journeys climb for real: the ground steepens, the ridges sink below you, and you break through a sea of cloud near the top. • Your hiker, your way: hat, trekking pole, and a trail dog who trots ahead. EARN EVERY STAMP Arrive at the end of a route and your passport gets its stamp: Half Dome for Yosemite, hoodoos for Bryce, a lighthouse for Acadia. Tap any stamp to relive the journey day by day, or rewind and watch it replay. MADE FOR REAL LIFE • Journeys pace to you. Walk more, arrive sooner. • Switch parks any time; your progress waits exactly where you left it. • Every step counts, even between parks: walk coast to coast on I-90 until you choose your next one. • Landmark alerts and a streak counter keep you moving without nagging. Reach your daily step goal day after day to earn new gear for your hiker. • A Home Screen widget keeps your trail in sight. • Share Journey Cards of your milestones. • Works entirely offline. No account. No ads. Nothing tracks you. ONE PURCHASE, YOURS FOREVER Fourteen journeys are free to walk, on six continents. The Full Passport unlocks all 63 U.S. national parks with a single one-time purchase. Thirteen Expedition packs add the world's great summits and trails: Everest and Kilimanjaro, the Camino, the Appalachian and Pacific Crest Trails, the Alps and the Dolomites, the Silk Road, the Amazon, Uluṟu, Indonesia's volcanoes, Patagonia, Japan, New Zealand and the Himalaya. No subscription, ever. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Walk the Parks reads only your step count and walking distance from Apple Health, keeps everything on your device, and collects nothing. There's no sign-up, no server, and no analytics company watching you walk. Lace up. The trail is waiting. Walk the Parks is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the National Park Service, the U.S. Department of the Interior, or Eastern National's Passport To Your National Parks® program.
