Steps to kilometers converter
Convert a number of steps into distance walked (or the reverse) based on your height, which determines your average stride length. All calculations are done locally in your browser, nothing is sent to a server.
How it works
Activity trackers and health apps often show a step count, but not always the equivalent distance. This tool applies an average stride length calculated from your height to convert in both directions, whether you start from a step goal or a kilometer goal.
How is stride length estimated?
Stride length is approximated with a formula commonly used in podiatry and sports science: roughly 41.3 to 41.5% of a person's height, depending on sex. This estimate remains a statistical average — actual stride also varies with walking pace, fatigue and terrain.
Why does the result differ from my pedometer?
A pedometer or smartwatch can calibrate your real stride using GPS or an accelerometer, which gives a more accurate result than this generic estimate based on height alone. Use this tool as a quick approximation, especially to set a daily step goal that matches a target distance.
No data entered here (height, steps walked) leaves your device: the calculation is entirely local.
