ein 15-minütiger Fußmarsch


Explanation:
Wäre vielleicht auch eine Möglichkeit, insbesonderes wenn man Platz sparen muss. Spaziergang kann auch eingebracht werden, aber hier eher unpassend.

neutral  Ulrike MacKay: "Marsch" klingt etwas anstrengend... um nicht zu sagen "militärisch"... ;-) // Ok ;-) ... na dann wünsche ich dir noch einen schönen Tag - ohne Sonntags"marsch", sondern nur mit gemütlichem Spaziergang! ;-)

  -> Ja, es ist etwas umgangssprachlich, da stimme ich zu. Ich wollte damit nur einen Denkanstoß geben.

agree  Jenny Streitparth: Gehminuten ist die gängiste/griffigste Übersetzung (in diesem Fall ohne "nur"). Alles andere klingt unnötig konstruiert.

einen 15-minütigen Spaziergang vom ...... entfernt.


Explanation:
Eine nette Umschreibung und auch richtig, da "go for walk" ja auch heissen kann, dass man spazieren geht.
