Kitamōka Station is an unstaffed single-platform halt on the Mōka Railway Mōka Line in Mōka City, Tochigi Prefecture, 18.0 km from the line's terminus at Shimodate. It opened on 1 April 1955 as an unstaffed Japanese National Railways station serving diesel railcar passengers, transferred to JR East at the 1 April 1987 privatisation, and then to the third-sector Mōka Railway on 11 April 1988. At the conversion the kana spelling of the station name was changed from "きたもうか" to "きたもおか". The platform has a shelter long enough for one car, with stairways at two points and a wheelchair-accessible ramp.

The 1 km stretch east of the station is locally known as the "Mōka SL, Sakura & Nanohana Highway", and from late March to mid-April photographers gather to capture the SL Mōka steam train framed by cherry blossoms and rapeseed flowers; the railway has issued public statements asking visitors to stop trampling the rapeseed fields and blocking farm roads with unauthorised parking.
