In addtion to the mileage already provided, from Barker Pass you can continue north, after a few miles leaving the to the right, winding downhill on the Tahoe Rim Trail.  The TRT will take you all the way into Tahoe City, coming out right at the Save-Mart (where 89 bends south, near Fanny Bridge).  That's another 16.7 miles.

How long it will take is largely a function of your fitness (not just your cardio, but also how strong your legs are, and how conditioned your feet are), preference for hiking long hours or short hours per day, time of year, and pack weight.
