walking backwards - how to say

While I'm at it, I'll ask another question that's been floating around in my brain for a while. How do you say "walking backwards"?
caminando en reversa?

Re: walking backwards - how to say

"Caminando/andando hacia atrás", "caminando/andando de espaldas" or (a bit more colloquial) "caminando/andando para atrás"

Thanks atnbueno I will use caminar hacia atra's

Another question hacia is not from the verb hacer? El pasado?

My pleasure.

I'm assuming your "atra's" means "atrás", doesn't it?

"Hacia" is a preposition. The past form of "hacer" is "hacía".
