How Far Did Frodo and Sam Travel in The Lord of the Rings?

From their homes in the Shire to Mount Doom where they destroyed the One Ring, Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee traveled about 1,350 miles. That's the same distance as from Austin, Texas to Los Angeles, California.
Redditor Isai76 created a series of helpful maps that illustrate the distances in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. How far was the journey of the Fellowship from Rivendell to Moria? 175 miles, which is the same distance between London and Manchester. Isai76 has helpfully laid out each leg of the journey of the Fellowship. So start marching.
