Walking 4 miles typically takes between 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes for most adults, depending on walking speed and other factors.
- The average walking speed for adults is around 3 to 3.2 miles per hour, which translates to about 1 hour and 15 to 20 minutes to cover 4 miles
- At a moderate pace of about 3.2 mph, walking 4 miles takes roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes
- If walking briskly at 4 mph, it can take about 1 hour
- Slower walking speeds (around 2.5 mph) can take about 1 hour and 36 minutes to walk 4 miles
Factors influencing walking time include age, fitness level, terrain, and walking conditions. Most people walk between 3 and 4 mph, so a reasonable estimate for walking 4 miles is about 1 to 1.25 hours
