Me and a colleague would go for at least one but often times multiple walks per day. Sometimes just to shoot the breeze but more often than not it was to discuss some work we were doing or the conversation ended up there anyway. The walks were usually around 30-45 minutes.
During those walks we may not have banged out code or written emails or what have you, but damn if it wasn't the most productive time of the day. Usually, we'd go back to either his or my desk and turn the conversations we just had into something concrete.
We did some great work back then, and I don't think it would've been nearly as good if we hadn't gone for those daily walks. It also had the bonus of both of us missing some boring meeting every once in a while, but because those walks almost always ended up in something good we tended to get away with it.
