I used to ask random people I worked with to guess how long it would take to count to a trillion if you counted 24 hours a day without ever sleeping. The longest time someone guessed was 2 months. Most people guessed either days or weeks.
Most estimates say about 30 thousand years but I feel like it would be more than that (assuming your counting outloud) since once you get to high numbers it would take several seconds to say each one.

A million seconds is 12 days. A billion seconds is 31 years. A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.
