walk up to -> monterons?

For "walk up to…", i used "nous monterons à l'aire de jeu". Is that incorrect? I believe we also use "monter" when walking up a road?

Bonjour Raphael,

After discussing this point with my colleagues, we decided to accept "monter" as well, as there aren't enough details.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !

The English phrase "to walk up to" is translated here as marcher jusqu'à, which means "to walk up to this point and no further". Using monter suggests that the playground is located on top of a hill that you have to climb to get there.
