Get walking directions in Maps on iPad
In the Maps app , you can get detailed walking directions to your destination.
![A map with several walking routes, each listed with a Go button in the route card on the left.](https://help.apple.com/assets/62224256028DCF13A670452F/6222425B028DCF13A6704539/en_US/1a9d2849b13be661b967b107041977a8.png)
Note: Turn-by-turn spoken directions are not available in all countries or regions. See the iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability website.
Get directions for walking
Do one of the following:
Say something like “Hey Siri, give me walking directions home.” Learn how to ask Siri.
Tap your destination (such as a search result in Maps or a landmark on a map), or touch and hold anywhere on the map, then tap the directions button.
When a suggested route appears, you can do the following:
View a route’s directions in a list: On the route card, tap the route’s estimated travel time so that the route appears at the top of the card, then tap the estimated travel time again. This list is especially helpful if you know you’ll lose your internet connection on your route, because you can refer to these directions even after you lose your connection.
To share the directions, scroll to the bottom of the card, then tap Share.
Switch to walking directions: If walking isn’t your default mode of travel or if you’re viewing a transit map, tap
to see a suggested walking route.
Choose other route options: You can reverse the starting point and destination, select a different starting point or destination, and more. See Select other route options in Maps on iPad.
Tap Go for the route you want.
On Wi-Fi only models, Maps shows turn directions in a banner at the top left. To see the next direction, swipe the banner left. To view a list of upcoming directions or to end directions, tap the route card at the bottom of the screen, then tap Details or End Route.
On Wi-Fi + Cellular models (with a cellular data plan and Cellular Data turned on in Settings
> Maps), Maps speaks turn-by-turn directions to your destination. While following the route, you can share your ETA, get an overview of your route, and more. See Things you can do while following a route in Maps on iPad.
