The number of steps in a kilometer varies based on stride length, gender, height, pace, and walking speed. On average:
- For an adult male with an average step length of about 76 cm, there are approximately 1,316 steps in a kilometer.
- For an adult female with an average step length of about 67 cm, there are roughly 1,493 steps in a kilometer.
- Most adults take between 1,250 and 1,550 steps to cover one kilometer at a moderate walking pace.
- Taller individuals or faster walkers tend to take fewer steps per kilometer due to longer stride lengths, while shorter individuals or slower walkers take more steps.
In summary, the typical range is about 1,300 to 1,500 steps per kilometer for most people walking at a normal pace.
