Walking Time Calculator

Work out how long a walk will take from distance and walking speed.

—

The result is the estimated time the walk will take at the speed entered, not including breaks or rests.

Formula

Walking time equals distance divided by speed, converted from hours to minutes.

How it works

Distance divided by speed gives hours, multiplied by 60 for minutes. Breaks, crossings and hills are not included, so add time for those on a real route.

Worked example

For example, a distance of 5 km at a speed of 5 km/h takes 5 ÷ 5 × 60 = 60 minutes (1h 00m).

FAQs

What is a normal walking speed?
About 5 km/h for a brisk adult walk; 4 km/h is leisurely.

Does it include rests?
No. Add planned rest time separately.

How do I estimate speed?
Time yourself over a known distance once.
