This is the fastest form of travel for most snakes, but rattlesnakes donât engage in this style of locomotion often. Rattlesnake speeds have not been specifically measured, but they likely travel at about 2 to 3 miles per hour in very short bursts. In comparison, the fastest humans can run up to 28 miles per hour.
