How far is the walk from EPCOT to Boardwalk?

How long does walking from the Boardwalk to Epcot take? The distance between the resort and the park is only . 4 miles (. 65 km).



The walk from EPCOT to Disney's BoardWalk Inn and the surrounding entertainment district is approximately 0.3 to 0.5 miles (about 500 to 800 meters), depending on your specific destination along the promenade. To start this walk, you must exit EPCOT through the International Gateway, located between the United Kingdom and France pavilions in World Showcase. From the exit turnstiles, you simply follow the paved pathway across a small bridge. It is a very pleasant, scenic stroll that typically takes between 5 to 10 minutes at a steady pace. This convenience makes the BoardWalk area a popular spot for EPCOT guests to grab a midday meal or explore the Jellyrolls dueling piano bar and Atlantic Dance Hall after the park closes. Because this path is entirely "outside" the park gates, you do not need a valid park ticket just to walk from the BoardWalk to the International Gateway entrance, though you will obviously need one to enter the park itself.
