Walking speed is the rate at which a human or animal travels by foot, typically measured in meters per second, kilometers per hour, or miles per hour. For healthy adult humans, the preferred or natural walking speed typically ranges between 1.10 and 1.65 meters per second (approximately 4.0 to 5.9 km/h). This speed is influenced by various factors, including age, physical fitness, culture, and environmental conditions.
