You go on an 18 mile hike.
The first half of the hike, you hike 3 miles per hour.
The second half of the hike, you hike 1 mile per hour.
The average of three and one is two.
So, your average hiking speed for the whole hike is 2 miles per hour.
Right?

T = total hiking time in hours.
Speed = distance in miles over time in hours.
18 miles divided by 12 hours equals 1.5 mph speed for the hike.
Mileage (as I assumed) this means it was a 12 hour hike...

I hike a lot....
Since I like to travel light, I often perfect for me .
And provides enough light to hike on a dark trail for hours (or act as an emergency signal), it's hard-hike, I normally just take a single-CR123 flashlight.

First couple of days on the SCT aren't hard.
Tasmanian walk was a day hike from near the Glenorchy tip to the Longley pub, including Montague around 10 hours, covered well over 30kms though.

Dubrovnik Cable Car and Hike Down Srd Hill
Has anyone rode the Dubrovnik Cable Car up and walked down Srd Hill? How much time do I need to plan to return to the Old City of Dubrovnik? Does the trail return near the Old City of Dubrovnik? Thanks!

If we hike....
Website that it takes around 1/2 hour to hike down the hill in Dubrovnik and that a one-way ticket can take the cable car round trip, it does not make sense to spend an few extra hours trying to hike you for it.
