In 1990, the American explorer Will Steger led a group of six international explorers, including himself, and men from China, Russia, France, Japan and England, and they did just that.

They walked from the Antarctic Peninsula to Mirney in a walk that lasted from July to the next April.

How long does it take to get to Antarctica from England by walking?

Unless you can walk on water, this trek is not possible. Your trek would take you across water from England to the south, and through Europe to the Bosphorus crossing into Africa. When you reach the tip of South Africa, there is nothing but open ocean to cross before reaching Antarctica.

It is not possible to get across the world simply by walking. There are oceans and many places where you would not be able to walk, causing you to take a plane or boat in order to get from one country to another.

How long would it take to walk from Colorado Springs Colorado to the South pole base in Antarctica?

Firstly, it would actually be impossible to walk to the South Pole because South America is separated from Antarctica by Drake Passage, which is a body of saltwater connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean. Assuming that "magically" you could walk across the Drake Passage, the trip would be about 10,000 miles. At 20 miles per day, walking EVERY day, it would take 500 days. However, very few people are accustomed to walking 20 miles per day, every day, so trip would be longer.
