The study aimed to evaluate the potential of using wearable devices and tablet terminals to visualize heart rates in real-time during group hiking as an effective means to enhance hiking safety. The participants were eight healthy adults with no prior hiking experience. The hiking route chosen for the study was the 7 km course from Ashiyagawa to Ikkenchaya. Heart rates were measured using wearable sports heart rate monitors, and an application capable of displaying and recording multiple individuals’ heart rates in real-time on a single tablet device was used. Real-time visualization of heart rates was found to be feasible even during outdoor hiking activities. Both hiking leaders and participants could objectively assess physical strain based on heart rate data, suggesting that this approach could serve as an effective safety management measure by accounting for physiological stress levels.
