The Earth's Magnetic North Pole, where the magnetic field lines become oriented vertically, moves constantly due to the drift in the Earth's magnetic field. In 2005, the Magnetic North Pole was located at 82.7°N by 114.4°W. To find the magnitudal 2-D land displacement (distance) from the Magnetic North Pole to the True North Pole, multiply the difference between the Magnetic North Pole's latitude (+82.7) and 90 degrees, by 60 nautical miles. (Or: [90-82.7 = 7.3] × 60 = 438 nautical miles). That value was correct for 2005, but keep in mind that any latitudinal shift in the position of the Magnetic North Poll indicates a change in distance between the two.
The North Pole and the South Pole are far away from the equator.
The three magnetic poles are the north magnetic pole, the south magnetic pole, and the geomagnetic pole. The north and south magnetic poles are where the Earth's magnetic field lines converge and point vertically into or out of the Earth's surface, while the geomagnetic pole is the point on the Earth's surface above the axis of the magnetic field.
In the North Pole the Artic has a natural melting cycle while in the South Pole its ice shelf has the same size and shape. Penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere while Polar Bears live in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is roughly 2,945 kms (1,830 miles) from the North Pole.

Half the world away (8000 miles as a neutrino would fly, 12,500 miles as a bird would fly.)
No. You will reach to the North Magnetic Pole instead, which is a fair distance from the True North Pole, as the magnet always points North due to Earth's magnetic fields. The distance between the two North Poles are also changing, as Earth's magnetic fields will turn. The current South Pole will be the next North Magnetic Pole in the far future.

No. As far as I remember geographic north pole is on the northern most part of the world and the magnetic north pole is a little to the off from the direct north (I don't remember how far or which direction). To add to the above correct answer, the earth's magnetic north pole is currently situated about 1600 km (1000 miles) distant from it's geographic pole, and is in the vincinity of Bathurst Island in Canada's north. For unknown reasons it shifts somewhat over time, but does not consistently shift in the same direction. Naturally, so does the south magnetic pole.

because its so far away from the equator
North Star points at True North, you can use a compass and north star to see how far off magnetic north is from your location. .
A long way, they are much closer to the South Pole.

The magnetic north pole has moved approximately 1,400 miles (2,250 kilometers) since 1831. It is currently drifting at a faster rate towards Russia from the Canadian Arctic.
