An elliptical exercise apparatus includes two cranks disposed rotatably on a frame and rotatable about a common crank axis, two rails each disposed fixedly on the frame and having a non-circular guide slot, two extension links connected respectively, radially, and slidably to the cranks and mounted with rollers disposed respectively and movably within the guide slots, two connector members disposed on the frame and reciprocatable along a longitudinal direction of the frame, and two foot links each having a first end connected pivotally to the corresponding extension link and a second end connected pivotally to the corresponding connector member. When the rollers move along the rails, the extension links are extendable and retractable relative to the cranks, respectively.
