Palmer Station is located on the Antarctic Peninsula -- Latitude: 64°46.2′ S
Longitude: 64°3′ W -- and the South Pole Station is located at 90 degrees South.
On the TransAntarctic trek led by Will Steger in 1989-1990, the team walked from the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula beginning in July and reached the Pole on December 12. You can read more, below.
Practically, however, to get from Palmer to Pole, one would fly out of Palmer to South America, north to America, make a connecting flight to Hawaii, then to New Zealand, to McMurdo and to the South Pole.
You can calculate the straight-as-the-crow-files miles using a converter for degrees to miles and come up with about 1,560 miles.
