How long to walk 1 step?

Answer

Walking 1 step takes about
1 second

Step 0.78 m (assumed for men) · pace 5.1 km/h (≈ 3.17 mph) · non‑stop, flat ground

With a 0.7 m step (assumed for women): 0.7 m, about 1 second.

1 × 0.78 m = 0.78 m · 0.78 m ÷ 5.1 km/h ≈ 0.000153 h ≈ 1 s

What step length and pace does this calculator use?

A 0.78 m step (assumed for men; 0.7 m for women) and a pace of 5.1 km/h (≈ 3.17 mph), about 1.42 m/s, between the usual 1.31 m/s and the medium 1.47 m/s walking speeds of a 2020 review of 35 studies (Murtagh et al., Sports Medicine).

Does it include breaks or hills?

No — it is non-stop walking on flat ground; breaks, hills and crowds add time.
