Calorie Calculator
Ever wonder how much that hike is helping in the fight to burn calories?
Select an option below, or compare your last hike with other common activities.
Note: Figures are based on moderate (as opposed to vigorous) activity. A heavier person burns more calories, so the same amount of physical activity can actually burn the same number of calories but more quickly. But remember, exercising harder and faster only increases the calories expended slightly. To burn more calories it is better to exercise for a longer time.
Determining how many calories you burn is not an exact science. This number should only be used as an estimate of calorie expenditure. Courtesy of the Calorie Control Council.
