Calculateur d'Allure de Randonnée

Estimez le temps de randonnée avec la règle de Naismith, en tenant compte du dénivelé.

Introduction

Hiking Pace Calculator — Estimate hiking time using Naismith's Rule, factoring elevation gain. Enter Distance (km), Elevation gain (meters) to get an instant, accurate result.

Formule

Naismith's Rule (William Naismith, 1892): estimated time (hours) = distance(km)/5 + elevation gain(m)/600 — i.e. allow 1 hour per 5 km walked, plus 1 extra hour per 600 m of ascent.

Étape par étape

  1. Enter the Distance (km).
  2. Enter the Elevation gain (meters).
  3. Click Calculate to see your result instantly.

Exemple concret

Example: With Distance (km) = 10 km, Elevation gain (meters) = 300 m, the Hiking Pace Calculator gives Estimated Time Minutes: 150, Estimated Time Hours: 2.5, Pace Per Km Minutes: 15.

Questions Fréquentes

Why doesn't Naismith's Rule account for descent?
The classic rule only adds time for climbing, since ascent is what most slows typical hiking pace. Steep, technical descents can also slow you down in practice, but the original rule doesn't add time for them.
Is this accurate for all hikers?
It's a useful baseline for a reasonably fit hiker on a decent trail, but actual pace varies with fitness, pack weight, terrain, and conditions — many hikers apply a personal adjustment factor to the result.
What inputs does the Hiking Pace Calculator need?
You'll need to provide: Distance (km), Elevation gain (meters). All fields use sensible defaults, so you can see a working example immediately and then adjust the values to match your own numbers.
How accurate is the Hiking Pace Calculator?
The Hiking Pace Calculator applies the formula exactly as calculated — Naismith's Rule (William Naismith, 1892): estimated time (hours) = distance(km)/5 + elevation gain(m)/600 — i.e. allow 1 hour per 5 km walked, plus 1 extra hour per 600 m of ascent. — so results are precise for the inputs you provide. Accuracy depends on entering correct, realistic input values.
Is the Hiking Pace Calculator free to use?
Yes, the Hiking Pace Calculator is completely free, requires no signup, and runs instantly in your browser.

À propos de Calculateur d'Allure de Randonnée

The Hiking Pace Calculator uses a real, verifiable formula — Naismith's Rule (William Naismith, 1892): estimated time (hours) = distance(km)/5 + elevation gain(m)/600 — i.e. allow 1 hour per 5 km walked, plus 1 extra hour per 600 m of ascent. — so results are accurate every time, not an approximation.
