Best Answer

It is not explicitly said in The Odyssey.

I would guess at least 25 feet.

It is said that he stood like a crag at the top of a high mountain. He was big enough to grab a man with each hand, and was a match for a dozen normal men. Further, he could roll a huge rock that 22 - 4-wheeled wagons would be unable to move.
