I'd really be hesitant in doing a long walk before the operation. Not so much the actual walking, but think about the remoteness of where you'll be walking, what happens if take a small stumble and the whole knee blows up again causing a loss of mobility. IMO you're putting a lot of pressure on the others you're walking with and any people involved in your extraction.
