I'm looking for books about nature and about walking.
The Walk by Walser was pretty good, and I have some non-fiction books on my list:
The peregrine
Desert Solitaire
A Sand County Almanac : With Other Essays on Conservation from Round River
Which I got from the last thread.
What else do you recommend?
Werner Herzog has a great diary about walking from Munich to Paris, 'Of Walking In Ice'
Maybe Hamsun's Growth of the Soil. The Forest Unseen is wonderful non-fiction about a square of forest as it develops over the year.
The Long Walk: The True Story of a Walk to Freedom
True story about about a guy who escapes from a Siberian gulag and walks from there to India. (consult a map)
Also they see Yetis. Dunno if it's all true but it was a great read.
The Lord of the Rings

It's not about walking but it's about living in nature with some lovely digressions and divine prose. Comfiness shall reign supreme upon the realms of your soul after you're done with this.
