[shannon006]

With so many changes recently, does anyone have the current approximate walk time from Hollywood Studios to Epcot?

It's about 1.3 miles between the two. I guess it would depend on your pace and physical condition. I'd say the average would be 20-30 minutes for most folks.

Not really much has changed for that walk. About 25 min nice walk

FYI, the part of the path that had been detoured closer to DHS is (as of mid December) now back to the normal/original route.

According to the step tracker on my phone, it’s .8 miles. This is from the IG exit to the point where you merge with all of the parking lot people at HS and take the shortcut through boardwalk. I walked quickly and it took me 18 minutes.

Just got back and it's back to normal. It took about 20 mins from DHS to Boardwalk, so add another 5 or so to get to Epcot. Take the shortcut through the Boardwalk pool area.

Are the boats back to their normal schedule?

It’s less than a mile if you cut through the Boardwalk pool area. It’s a nice short walk.

Where is the Boardwalk pool? Can you see this shortcut from the path?

Yes it’s on the right hand side of the path. You’ll pass some tennis courts then a smaller pool. Immediately after that is a larger pool area that you can cut through.

Yes.

I'm not sure as we never used the boats.

As per Robo's maps. Follow the pink line.

Will warn you, it's still easy to miss, even when you know it very well.
We've been staying at BWI for years, taking the path through the pool all the time. Still, last week, DH and I walked right past the pool short cut by not paying attention. So watch for it, don't assume it will be obvious.

Below is a close-up of the overall map that is shown in Post #12 of this thread.
It shows the pool area in greater detail.

Boardwalk Villas overlooking the quiet pool, upper floor, is my favorite location. Easy walk to both Epcot and HS, right near community hall, close hot tub in the AM, easy to get to big pool, etc.

Didn't even think about cutting through the Boardwalk Resort for the walk to HS. We will be staying at the Beach Club Villas and I've wanted to try walking to HS. being able to cut through the Boardwalk Resort will save a a good amount of walking coming from the Beach Club Villas.

It's a nice walk, especially this time of year. In the peak of the summer heat, sometimes I prefer to take a boat.
