走路 (zǒu lù) is the everyday verb for 'to walk' as a means of getting somewhere, emphasizing the action of walking on foot. It differs from 走 (zǒu), which can also mean 'to leave' or 'to go' without specifying the mode, and from 散步 (sàn bù), which means 'to take a leisurely stroll' rather than purposeful walking.
