ConvBolt — Unit ConverterKilometers to Feet Converter
Converting kilometers to feet is a multiplication by a fixed factor: 1 km = 3280.84 ft. The table below covers the values people look up most often, and the formula section shows exactly where that factor comes from.
Because one kilometer works out to 3280.84 ft, the foot is the much larger unit of the two: a figure given in foot always carries a larger number than the same measurement in kilometer. A chart drawn in km can hide that, so check which label the axis uses before you compare two readings.
Technical documentation is the other common source — a datasheet drawn up in kilometers often has to be re-expressed in feet for a supplier or a regulator who works in the other system.
The conversion factor used here is 3280.84 ft per kilometer (2 significant digits as shown). Kept to seven figures it covers professional measurement; if you round it to two or three decimals for a spreadsheet, the error scales with the input — at a value of 1,000 km a factor rounded to three decimals can be off by a measurable amount. The reverse direction uses 0.0003048 km per ft, the exact reciprocal, so a round trip through both pages returns your original number.

How to convert kilometers to feet
Multiply the kilometer value by 3280.84 to get the equivalent in feet. This single factor works for every value in the table above and for anything else you need — there is no per-value adjustment, which is why a conversion table and a calculator always agree.
If you need the opposite direction, use the Feet to Kilometers converter instead of dividing by hand; both pages use the same source factors. For every other km conversion in one place, see the km conversion hub.
